Bug Description

Binary package hint: mrename

mrename and mcpmv give errors, since they use #!/bin/sh and some bashisms. After changing the shebang to #!/bin/bash the script works again.

Oh I'm using edgy btw

Tagging as 'bitesize': I assume we want to fix this by changing the shebang, not by rewriting to eliminate bashisms
