I work almost exclusively with Windows these days and am running OTC on a 
windows server.  I have used various Linux distributions so fortunately I'm not 
completely lost.

In order to fix the package I need to change the launcher script to include the 
environment variable declaration, but when installed the package resides in a 
.sfs file (server/default/nfs/root/sfs/package/freerdp.sfs) and this is mounted 
at runtime.  In order to patch the launcher I need to be able to replace the 
script in the sfs file, since SquashFS is mounted read-only.

Peter's package is almost working for me, and with a single change would be 
perfect.  I can't imagine that I'm the only one it would work for in this way, 
so asking him to patch this is reasonable I think.  Unfortunately I don't have 
time to run up a Debian virtual machine to develop in, or to learn how to build 
packages etc. just to get this working.  I wouldn't want to fork Peter's work 
anyway, since he's done a pretty good job on it thus far, as far as I can see.

In the short term I have a commandline launcher that works, and now I can use 
OTC clients to connect to my TS farm.  Even if Peter never patches in the 
environment spec I'm happy with that.

Hi Corey,

please consider to read our development documentation:

http://openthinclient.org/developers%20guide .

You'll find answer there. There is no need to touch sfs files manually. The 
tcos-dev tools will do this for your.

The launcher file is the right place to do any exports before starting the 
binary.

Regards, Jörn
