Subject: PR/33716 CVS commit: pkgsrc/pkgtools/pkg_install
Date: Tue, 13 Jun 2006 13:57:10 +0000 (UTC)

 Module Name:	pkgsrc
 Committed By:	jlam
 Date:		Tue Jun 13 13:57:10 UTC 2006
 
 Modified Files:
 	pkgsrc/pkgtools/pkg_install: Makefile
 
 Log Message:
 This package overrides the "update" target (is that wise?) and runs
 its own set of commands.  One of these invoked "deinstall" with
 UPDATE_RUNNING set to "YES"; however, UPDATE_RUNNING was made into a
 pkgsrc private variable a little while ago.  Fix "update" by setting
 _UPDATE_RUNNING instead.  This fixes PR pkg/33716.
