I would like the Council to take an initial look, and possible vote on |
9 |
switching to a newer bash version (preferably bash-4.2, stable Sep |
10 |
2012) in the next EAPI (bug #431340 [1]). |

This would need some kind of schedule since it depends on EAPI parsing |
13 |
which went stable in Jul 2012). If the transition period needs to be |
14 |
extended, I'd prefer having it in EAPI 6 anyway but adding a policy |
15 |
like 'do not use it in global scope until ...', so that pre-EAPI-6 |
16 |
package manager compatibility would be retained. |
