Re: [BUG] in the generic packaging script

I'm starting from scratch on the aspell dict packs, because I don't quite remember where I left off. I downloaded a fresh generic script and named it aspell-en-0.51.0-1.sh. I added a debug functions available from the command-line to see whether the different variables were set OK and - lo and behold - they weren't.

The results: $ ./aspell-en-0.51.0-1.sh vars
topdir = /home/RLandheer/aspell
PKG = aspell-en
VER = en-0.51.0
REL = 0.51.0-1
FULLPKG = aspell-en-en-0.51.0-0.51.0-1


I am no wizz at sed regular expressions (I know a lot more about the Perl-compatible variety) bu I am fairly certain the bug is in them. I'll try to patch it up but if anyone beats me to it, I certainly won't mind :)

Try this instead:


export PKG=`echo $tscriptname | sed -e 's/\-[^\-]*\-[^\-]*$//'`
export VER=`echo $tscriptname | sed -e "s/${PKG}-//" -e 's/\-[^\-]*$//'`
export REL=`echo $tscriptname | sed -e "s/${PKG}-${VER}-//"`
