I think that's because this script is written in 'bash', but 'sh' is 
specified in the first line.
Most distributives use symlink sh->bash, but kubuntu has sh->dash.

So you have two ways:
1. unlink sh, make link sh->bash
2. edit script "install-crossover-bla-bla-bla", replace 'sh' with 'bash' 
in the first line.
