[Slackbuilds-users] Easy typo

All,
I noticed in a SlackBuild I was working on that I misspelled SLKCFLAGS
as SLCKFLAGS, as in
SLCKFLAGS= ...
so setting CFLAGS="$SLKCFLAGS" ...
wasn't doing anything.
My eye wanted to see "SLCK" as in "Slack" so it's an easy typo to make
and not notice.
Out of curiosity, I ran
find /usr/sbo/repo -name \*.SlackBuild -exec grep SLCK \{\} \; -print
and similar issues turned up in
./office/qpdfview/qpdfview.SlackBuild ("SLCKCFLAGS=...")
./office/cups-pdf/cups-pdf.SlackBuild ("gcc $SLCKFLAGS...")
./development/regina-rexx/regina-rexx.SlackBuild (in a comment)
./development/sqlitebrowser/sqlitebrowser.SlackBuild ("SLCKCFLAGS=...")
... and maybe there are others. I wonder if this wouldn't be a good
thing to append as a test in sbopkglint ... if the SlackBuild sets any
variables
named SLCK... could be worth a closer look.
Just a thought!
respectfully,
Judah
