Hi,
I've added two patches (note: not against latest release) to change the way
unattended locates the scripts.
If you apply the patches, unattended tries to locate the files (scripts) in
the site directory first instead of the scripts.
This has two pleasant effects:
1) You don't have to add your own scripts to the scripts directory. All site
specific files can stay in the site directory.
2) Files in site override files in scripts with the same name. Scripts
you've changed (and placed in site) don't get overwritten with a new version
of unattended.
The PATH change in todo.pl is very simple. The change to install.pl is a
copy/paste affair, so not the best code.
Maybe someone can clean that up to avoid the duplicate code (add a
subroutine or something)
I've tested it and it seems OK to me, but to be sure it needs more than one
tester... Anybody??
Let me know if you think this should make it to the cvs.
Greetings,
Niels
BTW, when is the next version going to be released?
