DetailsThe included "shells" file still specifies shell paths in /bin. It should be updated to specify shell paths in /usr/bin to avoid confusion and other issues (e.g. https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/33677).
I think it would make sense to gradually change the paths in the file to provide a smooth transition with e.g. /bin/bash and /usr/bin/bash co-existing in the file as long as the /bin/bash symlink exists. Thanks! |

/bin/bash is the standard path. Bash bieng in both /usr/bin and /bin is to help transition the /bin directory into a symlink.
