When I run the chunkPackage script under 3.0, the shell barfs with the message that "destDir" is an undefined variable. Well, I did a diff between the 3.0 chunkPackage and the 2.0 chunkPackage and found that someone, for some reason, has superficially rewritten the entire script. I can't for the life of me see any functional difference or any reason why destDir wouldn't get defined, whether or not the -d option is provided (I tried both). So, what am I missing? - Kurt Kurt A.

This bug occurs when the -d switch is not passed to chunkPackage or when "-d ." is passed. A workaround is to use the -d switch with an absolute pathname. Here are diffs for a fix: 117c117 < set destDir = . # OLD --- > set destDir = `/bin/pwd` # NEW Hope that helps. Doug Wiebe Software Engineering NeXT Computer, Inc.
