[wpkg-users] issue with 1.2.1-RC25?

[Brent A Nelson]

I just tried the latest Flash Player installer, "Combined 32-bit and 
64-bit Windows package for both, IE and others" with 1.2.1-RC25, but it 
has a variable which refers to another variable at:

<variable name="PKG_SOURCE"           value="%SOFTWARE%\Flash Player" />

(Actually, I change it to just "%SOFTWARE%\flash")

Unfortunately, this didn't work in my case.  It seems that WPKG did the 
PKG_SOURCE variable substitution, but it did not do the further 
substitution of SOFTWARE, so the commands failed (file not found). 
Replacing PKG_SOURCE throughout the script worked fine.

Is this supposed to work, or was it just that the package creator had his 
SOFTWARE variable defined differently (perhaps outside of WPKG), and 
"double substitutions" for variables within WPKG are supposed to fail?

Thanks,
