Is it possible to use $ROOTCMD in cfengine scripts?
I update a configuration file for tex-common, and want to run
update-texmf after that. It must work both for install and softupdate.
This is what I tried with in my script:
shellcommands:
any::
${ROOTCMD} /usr/sbin/update-texmf
The error from cfengine says that the command must be an absolute path,
and since I tried this on a softudate where $ROOTCMD should be a null
string, $ROOTCMD might not be exported to the script. Or would an empty
string cause this problem?
I resorted to using a separate shell-script, but it would be nice to
have everything in the same script.
I would probably be able to create a class script which defines
FAI_ACTION as a class, and then check for that class in the cfengine
script:
shellcommands:
install::
/sbin/chroot /tmp/target /usr/sbin/update-texmf
softupdate::
/usr/sbin/update-texmf
Does anyone have a better idea?
