Is the $LOGNAME env variable deprecated or broken in 11.10 Oneiric?
Asked by
Chris
I have a few scripts for backup and restore type operations that use the environment variable $LOGNAME to reference the user's home directory. This works fine in previous releases (mostly 10.04 LTS) but it seems to be broken in 11.10 beta2. Is this something unexpected that should actually work, or has it been deprecated at some point and no longer works? Google searches so far have not yielded any information on this.
