           Summary: Replace variables in package revisions by their value
                    in local wpkg.xml file
           Product: WPKG
           Version: 1.1.3-RCx
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: wpkg.js
        AssignedTo: mangoo at wpkg.org
        ReportedBy: pendl2megabit at yahoo.de
         QAContact: wpkg-users at lists.wpkg.org


The package revision of an installed package should have any variable replaced
by its value in the local %windir%\System32\wpkg.xml file.

This is needed if a package revision variable is overwritten by a definition at
 the profile or host level to make sure the installed version can be determined
correctly.

For instance the package is defined with revision="%PKG_VER%".
The minimum revision is defined as a variable in the package (PKG_VER=1.2.3),
but at the profile level this variable is overwritten (PKG_VER=2.3.4) to allow
a higher version of the package to be installed for testing.

In the local wpkg.xml file the revision attribute will be revision="2.3.4"
instead of revision="%PKG_VER%".

Thanks in advance,
Stefan
