I've built quite a few of them; I just didn't have time to look at it
last night. I'll get you a fix. In the meantime, it's not a critical
bug; it just keeps the program from automatically getting restarted
after you upgrade it.

That seems to work; I guess it uses $SHELL. I'll see if I can find
out what POSIX says and rework the RPM to do something compatible,
which you guys can then make part of the standard script. Sound OK?
