Claiming that systems without /bin/bash are "crap" shows a level of
naivete that only someone new to the open source world has. It was a
choice between actual
incompetence (unlikely) or pretend incompetence (a troll).
On to the substance instead of my mistaken ad hominem :
1) Even on systems with a binary called /bin/bash using "#!/bash/bash" is wrong
2) Many systems don't ship with bash at all for licensing, technical,
or preference reasons
3) Most operating systems that ship bash don't ship it in /bin
The only correct behaviors are using
#!/usr/bin/env bash to find the bash binary
or
#!/bin/sh which is mandated to exist by POSIX
What behavior does 'env' provide that you think isn't good?
