Hello Malte, i don't remember where i read it, but someone complained that setting an environment variable in the wpkg client for the wpkg logfile path doesn't work as it's not expanded. That's why i have to use hard codes paths.
Anyway, according to the wpkg documentation, that i posted, it should also be possible to override a environment variables inside wpkg. But yes, this is not what i am looking for. I talk about the path to the logfile that i have to set in the settingsfile which can be used to import the settings or automatically install the wpkg client.
