[wpkg-users] strange %SOFTWARE% behaviour

Dear all,
we just changed fileserver, and so I need to change the value of 
%SOFTWARE% to reflect the new situation.  We use wpkg and wpkg-gp. 
Although I changed the %SOFTWARE% from the old IP (172.16.1.2) to the new 
one (172.16.15.33), the old ip still sometimes shows up, which drives me 
crazy...
demo package:
<package 
  id="office" 
        name="Microsoft Office 2013" 
        revision="201302192224" 
        reboot="false" 
        priority="10">
 
  <variable name="PKG_VERSION" value="15" />
  <variable name="PKG_SOURCE" 
value="%SOFTWARE%\office\OFFICE2013\setup.exe"/>
 
  <check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="Microsoft Office 
Standard 2013" />
 
  <install cmd='cmd /c set SOFTWARE=%SOFTWARE%'/>
  <install cmd='cmd /c %PKG_SOURCE%' ><exit code="1641" /><exit 
code="3010" /><exit code="1" /></install>
 
  <!--upgrade include="remove" /-->
  <upgrade include="install" />

  <remove cmd='cmd /c start "" /WAIT %PKG_SOURCE%  /uninstall ProPlus '/>

</package>

Notice the install command i added for debugging: <install cmd='cmd /c set 
SOFTWARE=%SOFTWARE%'/> which, as you can see in the log underneath, gets 
expanded properly.  The 'real' install command gets expanded badly, to the 
old IP, even though I cannot find a declaration of SOFTWARE to that old IP 
anywhere anymore...  Basically, there are two problems: one line gets 
expanded properly, another not, and that old ghost ip from the past 
reappears...  Anyone any ideas please?

Kind regards, Juergen
