When a request script assigns values to environment variables, it must make those values available to the pkgadd command. This example shows a request script segment that performs this task for the four environment variables CLASSES
, NCMPBIN
, EMACS
, and NCMPMAN
. (These were defined in an interactive session with the administrator earlier in the script.)
