Subject: configure/RELEASE contents

Hi,

I have two environment variables that are set when I go to build a top
area, EPICS_DIR and EPICS_EXTENSIONS_DIR, in addition to
EPICS_HOST_ARCH.  I want to use these environment variables in
configure/RELEASE to specify where the external products are located.

EPICS_BASE=$(EPICS_DIR)
SYMB=$(EPICS_EXTENSIONS_DIR)
VXSTATS=$(EPICS_EXTENSIONS_DIR)

With these definitions there are environment variables missing from
configure/O.solaris-sparc/CONFIG_APP_INCLUDE.  For example when
constructing dbd files that include dbCommon.dbd the dbCommon.dbd file
is not found.

When I use absolute paths everything works.  Would someone please remind
me why I need to use absolute paths when specifying products in the
configure/RELEASE file?  Can I specify these variables in a different
location?

I'm using epics R3.14.4 on solaris-sparc.

Thanks

Geoff
