When trying to create a fabric2.Connection, Paramiko tries to invoke a local /bin/bash command:
$ fab2 db-shell

I've not been able to find anything in the docs about this yet.
I'm running fabric2==2.7.1, invoke==1.6.0, and paramiko==2.8.0 on NixOS stable 22.11.
Invoke currently defaults to /bin/bash, which is a known issue, since operating systems like Alpine and NixOS don't have that path. Fortunately we can specify a command in $PATH rather than manually looking it up, so adding the following to the Connection call does the trick: config=invoke.Config(overrides={"shell": "bash"}).
