Bash scripts fail because they point to /bin/sh

I don't understand do you mean that:
* The scripts point to a non-existing /bin/sh ?
or:
* The scripts point to /bin/sh that does exist, but it won't correctly with /bin/sh , yet it would work correctly with /bin/bash ?

No I think it is pretty clear.
/bin/sh was changed to reference /bin/dash.

Well dash doesn't cover all of bashes functions and therefore scripts break. Much like this one.

If the link in the file is changed to /bin/bash instead of /bin/sh it will function properly.

I don't know exactly if this is related, but airmon-sh does not work here.

The reported error is :

"/usr/sbin/airmon-ng: 16: Syntax error: "(" unexpected"

Maybe this is related to the use of dash instead of bash. If not I could file another bug.

No need to file another bug that is the exact issue. If you change your scripts to point to /bin/bash they will work fine.

  * Switch airmon-ng to using /bin/bash. (Malone: #55876)
