It should. I changed the code to 

#	rm -f debian/ess/usr/share/ess/etc/ess-sas-sh-command
	chmod 0755 debian/ess/usr/share/ess/etc/ess-sas-sh-command

so instead of deleting we now keep it and make it executable.  

Does your ESS installation actually expect it at 

	/usr/share/ess/etc/ess-sas-sh-command

If so, we're set.  Ping me off list if you want to try a new test package
which (given that it contains only .el files and scripts) can be installed on
Ubuntu too.

Cheers, Dirk
