I just build an Ubuntu 12.04 LTS development system and installed the required packages based on the current 1.2 QS Guide. On Denzil based BSP that works as expected.

However, I needed to switch back to edison. When I tried to bitbake an image I received errors that stated a need for bash and not dash (just like the old days). Also it needed a package 'cvs'.

Can I assume that bash is supported if I move back to working on the denzil release??

Can I assume installing cvs will not interfere with the denzil release?

Yes, bash will always be supported; the only change between edison and denzil in that regard is that having bash as the default shell is no longer a mandatory requirement.

Yes.
