Description Ernst Bachmann 2004-03-13 07:41:30 UTC

in /etc/init.d/mldonkey, the HOME env variable is set as follows:

env HOME=/home/${USER}

while this might be ok for a default setup, I think that it either should read the homedir from /etc/passwd (or YP or whatever),
or should use

env HOME=${BASEDIR}

to set the correct path.

Reproducible: Always
