Description Martin Väth 2008-06-08 09:20:36 UTC 
If /bin/sh links to dash, the "source" command in /sbin/consolelog.sh fails
tacitly, i.e. the defaults are used and /etc/conf.d/metalog is ignored.
A solution would be to use the standard "." instead of "source".
Alternatively, #!/bin/sh might be replaced by #!/bin/bash.
