Description: package function in PKGBUILD files no longer
honors our on-disk symlinks while in the fakeroot
environment. Not sure if that is strictly a bug, it probably
shouldn't have worked before, but it is clearly a change in
behavior. I've only now started investigating the cause
thinking this was a fakeroot regression. I've been through
the config files and find nothing obvious was changed in the
GNUStep.conf, but the GNUSTEP*ADMIN_TOOLS dirs need to be
set to /usr/bin, which fixes the --with-gnustep configure
argument for step packages (both in fakeroot and out).

The paths should never be /usr/sbin on Arch. Additionally, the GNUStep.conf file should be in the backup array. Not sure if it should be a configuration file or not, as this is the only step project I use. The correct fix is probalby a bit more involved, but this is suitable (at least for my use case): Thanks.

This task depends upon
That said, while the variable override obviously doesn't work anymore with 2.6.8, and is still a regression from 2.6.7 that should be looked at, it really isn't all that important. The underlying problem is still the same. The configure script is supplied with incorrect configuration when using --with-gnustep because we have the *ADMIN_TOOLS directories set to /usr/sbin (which is a symlink) in the default config. The override never should have been necessary, but has been there since at least 2012 (before I even started using the sogo package). I could just as easily move the files after install and make the PKGBUILD work fine (that was the suggested workaround for the user who reported the problem in the sogo package), but the configure command should have worked by default. Also, the file is a configuration file and should be backed up and not overwritten on upgrade. Luckily, my mess of example output still applies, and the 'fix', while incorrectly derived, is still applicable.
