Ubuntu's default dash shell causes oe-init-build-env to behave a bit
differently - (a) it can't pick up the OE root directory and (b) it
can't see any build directory specified as a command-line argument
(since dash doesn't pass through any arguments specified to sourced
scripts). We could work around these but doing so requires some internal
knowledge of the script; a much simpler fix is just to force running the
command under bash since it's expected to be installed on every distro.
Thanks to Chen Qi <Qi.Chen@windriver.com> for this fix.
Fixes [YOCTO #7614].

Provides an easy means to work on developing applications and system
components with the build system.
For example to "modify" the source for an existing recipe:
$ devtool modify -x pango /home/projects/pango
Parsing recipes..done.
NOTE: Fetching pango...
NOTE: Unpacking...
NOTE: Patching...
NOTE: Source tree extracted to /home/projects/pango
NOTE: Recipe pango now set up to build from /home/paul/projects/pango
The pango source is now extracted to /home/paul/projects/pango, managed
in git, with each patch as a commit, and a bbappend is created in the
workspace layer to use the source in /home/paul/projects/pango when
building.
Additionally, you can add a new piece of software:
$ devtool add pv /home/projects/pv
NOTE: Recipe /path/to/workspace/recipes/pv/pv.bb has been
automatically created; further editing may be required to make it
fully functional
The latter uses recipetool to create a skeleton recipe and again sets up
a bbappend to use the source in /home/projects/pv when building.
Having done a "devtool modify", can also write any changes to the
external git repository back as patches next to the recipe:
$ devtool update-recipe mdadm
Parsing recipes..done.
NOTE: Removing patch mdadm-3.2.2_fix_for_x32.patch
NOTE: Removing patch gcc-4.9.patch
NOTE: Updating recipe mdadm_3.3.1.bb
