It's very common. /bin/sh is one of the few things under Linux you can rely on.

Do you let RPM execute some shellscript? Then probably it reads

#!/bin/sh 

in the first line, and that's probably where the dependancy comes from.

/bin/sh should point to the default shell for executing scripts, preferably in a 'sh'
compatible way (read BASH Bourne Again SH). I don't think you want to remove
that dependancy, because it SHOULD be there.
