9391.0. "Errors on Freeware CD jacket" by SMURF::SAGGERER () Fri Apr 04 1997 11:05


ATTENTION All Users of the Digital Unix Freeware cd's !
     	 
The currently shipping version of the Digital Unix Freeware 
cd's has incorrect shell environment information printed on 
the cd jacket. It is unclear at this time how many of the
incorrectly printed jackets were shipped.

Here are the known errors and corrections:
     
     	 
     1) The section labeled "Shell Environment Changes"
     has the following incorrect (sh/ksh) syntax:
     
|    XFILESEARCHPATH=/usr/lib/X11/app-defaults/%L/%N:/freeware \
|    /lib/X11/app-defaults/%L/%N
     
     Please use:
     XFILESEARCHPATH="%D:/freeware/lib/X11/app-defaults/%N"


    

     2) For csh users the following incorrect syntax is printed:
         
|    setenv path ($path /freeware/bin \
|    /freeware/bin/X11)
        
|    setenv XFILESEARCHPATH "/usr/lib/X11/app-defaults \
|    /%L/%N:/freeware/lib/X11/app-defaults/%L/%N"
         
|    setenv MANPATH "$MANPATH:/freeware/man:"
         
         
     Please use:

     set path=($path /freeware/bin /freeware/bin/X11)
     setenv XFILESEARCHPATH "%D:/freeware/lib/X11/app-defaults/%N"
     setenv MANPATH "/freeware/man:${MANPATH}"


     I regret any inconvenience this may have caused you.
