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