The script /usr/lib/venv-salt-minion/bin/post_start_cleanup.sh is using /bin/sh and assumes it is linked to /usr/bin/bash. Debian links /bin/sh to dash not bash. The script executes /bin/sh and expects certain behaviour which it will not get from Debian.
Specifically, the builtin ‘builtin’ doesn’t exist in dash and thus throws an error. The error is unexpected and not trapped.
The script should simply have used #!/bin/bash rather than #!/bin/sh and avoided this problem.
Steps to reproduce
1.Execute the script /usr/lib/venv-salt-minion/bin/post_start_cleanup.sh on a Debian 10, 11 or 12 system.
2.The script will be executed with /bin/sh which links to /bin/dash on Debian
3.The script will error with the following output: "/usr/lib/venv-salt-minion/bin/post_start_cleanup.sh: 3: builtin: not found"
4.This might be a regression. Hosts installed under a previous Uyuni release use #!/usr/bin/env bash
