Bug#526738: gratuitous use of subprocesses

[martin f krafft]

Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.96+20090317-1
Severity: minor
Tags: upstream
File: /etc/grub.d/00_header

# sed -n 19,24p /etc/grub.d/00_header
transform="s,x,x,"

prefix=/usr
exec_prefix=${prefix}
libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib
grub_prefix=`echo /boot/grub | sed ${transform}`


What is it doing? That's two subprocesses (shell+sed) used for
absolutely zero purpose, as far as I can tell.
