I'm ambivalent about using 'cp' or '$CP' etc (though there are slight debugging advantages to the latter) but feel it should be consistent - which singular's spkg-install currently isn't (it uses both 'cp' and '$CP' as well as 'rm' and '$RM'). I can't immediately see any problem that would be caused either way. My initial suggestion would be to add 'set -x;env' near the top of both the original and patched spks-install file, run both (in suitable, clean environment) and diff the output. If we can see what is actually different, we might be able to work out what is going wrong. -- Peter Jeremy
