Hi!

grml-router fails when running in Ubuntu 9.10:

# grml-router
[: 17: !=: unexpected operator
/sbin/iptables not installed

So shouldn't grml-network depend on iptables (or at least recommend
it)?

I then cloned the git-repository and did:

% checkbashisms grml-network/sbin/*
script grml-network/sbin/grml-network is already a bash script; skipping
possible bashism in grml-network/sbin/grml-pptp-inode line 17 ($UID should be "$(id -ru)"):
if [ $UID != 0 ] ; then
possible bashism in grml-network/sbin/grml-pptp-inode line 49 (echo -e):
echo -e "#!/bin/sh\nLANG=C\nVPNSERVER=\"${VPNSERVER}\"\n" > /etc/init.d/pptp

script grml-network/sbin/modemlink is already a bash script; skipping
script grml-network/sbin/netcardconfig is already a bash script; skipping
script grml-network/sbin/scanmodem is already a bash script; skipping

I've attached some patches.
