beagle-search uses bashism but invokes sh

Bug Description

Binary package hint: beagle

/usr/bin/beagle-search starts with "#!/usr/bin/bash" but then on the last line uses "exec -a foo". The "-a" option is bash specific. Or more specifically in my experience it is not supported by dash (which is supposed to be POSIX complient or so).

So either the shell should be changed or the -a option should be changed IMHO.

Cheers
Floris
