typo in extpkg.cl with v2.15 ?

sontag wrote on Jan 14, 2011

Hi IRAF folks,

Thanks for keeping this helpful forum up and running.

There seems to be a typo in the 2.15 setup script 'extpkg.cl'. It looks like the variable named 'dp' on line 23 should be named 'dpkg'.

While this still looks like legal syntax, it causes a problem for PyRAF on startup (PyRAF users, see FAQ 1.5).

Can we safely rename this variable to 'dpkg'? We would appreciate any help.

Thanks,
Chris

Thanks for spotting that. Yes, just change the 'dp' to 'dpkg'.
