I tried building with `--keep-failed` and checked the contents of `environment-variables`, but the variable is not inside this file. Maybe the setenv is only taking effect inside the added phase and is not propagated to the configure phase? Also, I thought the gnu-build-system should already take care of setting this variable? From the below output I can see that it is at least set correctly for network-manager-sstp, which uses an almost identical package definition.
