If you're stuck with an Ubuntu system, 24.04 broke the previous way to fix /bin/sh (because no, dash won't be usable for anything until it supports pipefail). The new way is:

dpkg-divert --package dash --rename /bin/sh
ln -sf /usr/bin/bash /bin/sh

instead of:

echo "dash dash/sh boolean false" | debconf-set-selections
dpkg-reconfigure dash

I so wish I could move every Linux server to FreeBSD…
