Description Eric 2004-01-30 18:56:06 UTC

gen_determineargs.sh doesn't check to see if CMD_DEBUGFILE is set and transfer that setting to the DEBUGFILE variable used through genkernel.

(begin dippy patch)

$ diff gen_determineargs.sh gen_determineargs.sh.orig
19,23d18
<         if [ "${CMD_DEBUGFILE}" != "" ]
<         then
<                 DEBUGFILE="${CMD_DEBUGFILE}"
<         fi
<


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
run a genkernel with --debugfile=/tmp/foo.log
note that /tmp/foo.log is not created
Actual Results:  
nothing

Expected Results:  
Should have been a log file created.
