When /bin/sh points to bash (instead of dash), the behavior of "echo"
differs in the rendering of "\n":

  /usr/bin/glslc

  shaderc·2023.2-1\nspirv-tools·2023.1-2
  vs.
  shaderc·2023.2-1	 
  spirv-tools·2023.1-2

The attached patch to debian/rules fixes this by switching to use
printf, which appears to behave consistently regardless of the shell (at
least with my quick testing).

Thanks for maintaining shaderc!

live well,
