Template: mksh/sh
Type: boolean
Default: false
_Description: Install mksh as /bin/sh?
 Bash is the default /bin/sh on a Debian system.  However, since the Debian
 policy requires all shell scripts using /bin/sh to be POSIX compliant, any
 shell that conforms to POSIX can serve as /bin/sh.  Since mksh is POSIX
 compliant, it can be used as /bin/sh.  You may wish to do this because
 mksh is faster and smaller than bash.

Template: mksh/cannot
Type: error
_Description: Cannot install mksh as /bin/sh!
 Because dash has already been configured to be installed as /bin/sh, mksh
 cannot be installed as /bin/sh. Use "dpkg-reconfigure dash" to change dash
 to not install as /bin/sh, then "dpkg-reconfigure mksh" to install mksh there.
