  I'm writing a simple shell backend for cups, that should write the output to 
the temporary directory TMPDIR.

  But this variable does not seem to be exported to the backend although
  it is specified in the debug error log

  Error.log

  ...
  D [10/Sep/2010:10:07:59 +0200] [Job 2442] 
envp[12]="TMPDIR=/var/spool/cups/tmp"
  ...

  Because my backend kept crashing all time I added some debug info. I
  noticed that the environment variable TMPDIR does not seem to be
  exported to the backend.

  Export from my basic script

  echo "INFO: Software is ${SOFTWARE}" >&2
  echo "INFO: Device URI is ${DEVICE_URI}" >&2
  echo "INFO: TMPDIR is ${TMPDIR}" >&2

  And this is the output from my backend in error.log

  I [10/Sep/2010:10:00:12 +0200] [Job 2440] Software is CUPS/1.4.3
  I [10/Sep/2010:10:00:12 +0200] [Job 2440] Device URI is pdfandmail:/
  I [10/Sep/2010:10:00:12 +0200] [Job 2440] TMPDIR is

  TMPDIR should be "/var/spool/cups/tmp" as mentioned earlier.

  Regards,

  Robert
