- Bash 5.0 has a lot of bugfixes and a couple features that makes it worthwhile to update it to the latest verision. Should in general provide a better bash experience for us bash users. Full changelog can be found here.

- I actually tried building this but ran in to some errors. I think it is better for the core or triage team to tackle this...

While it's not a written rule, typically it's Core Team that manages packages in system.base, so you better just notify that an update exists :)

The current bash build is working again, thanks to @sunnyflunk! However when trying to update I get the following error:
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lcurses
If I'm not completely wrong we only have libncurses, but no libcurses. Not sure if we need ncurses 5 for that or if it can be disabled by configure. I'm sure someone will figure it out soon :)
