Summary: gpe-calendar & gpe-announce alarms will repeat /
duplicate until acknowledged
Product: Openembedded
Version: OpenZaurus 3.5.4.x

Both gpe-calendar & gpe-announce produce scripts under /var/spool/at that will
keep on repeating / duplicating themselves until one is finally acknowledged.
This is because the script commands are run *before* the script is removed,
leaving the script in place until the commands have completed, so in the case of
gpe-announce, if the announce window isn't acknowledged befor the next time atd
cycles, the script is run again. For example:
gpe-announce 'doctor appt'
gpe-calendar -s 1145646000 -e 104 &
rm -f $0
I would suggest that the 'rm -f $0' line be placed *before* the script commands
are run. The script is loaded into memory upon excecution, so removing it right
away won't prevent it running properly (tested & confirmed), and then the script
wouldn't be around for atd to pick up again.
rm -f $0
gpe-announce 'doctor appt'
gpe-calendar -s 1145646000 -e 104 &
