Description Emilio Pozuelo Monfort 2009-12-19 13:12:49 UTC 
It would be nice to have a test that checked for syntax errors to avoid bugs like bug 604995.

there is a test, but it wasn't covering shell scripts.

    tests: cover shell scripts by unit tests, fixes #604998
    
    Use sh -n to test the validity of the shellscripts we ship.
