Subject: OpenPKG 1.3 environment bug in rc script
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I found what seems to be a bug in the %{l_prefix}/etc/rc script in
openpkg-1.3.0-1.3.0 that silently ignores any environment variables set in
packages %env sections that contain anything but upper case [A-Z] (e.g.
minor things like LD_LIBRARY_PATH :-).
The attached patch to the rc file accepts anything starting with [A-Z]
followed by anything.

Thanks a lot, Bill, good catch. We wanted to filter variables with upper
case characters only and get rid of (usually temporary) variables with
lower case characters but we forgot the underscore. The official fix is
http://cvs.openpkg.org/chngview?cn=11479 and we consider merging this
into an updated openpkg-1.3.1 later.
