------------------ Additional Follow-up Comments ----------------------------

There is a bug, but not what you think the bug is.
The looking into OUTDIR is only applicable for OTHERINDEXES
and not INCLUDE.

However, an attempt is to look in the same location the
resource file that is doing the including, which your
patch attempts to fix. But your patch will fail for cases
when $pathhead is empty.

A proper fix has been committed to CVS.

Category:  Resources
Severity:  5 - Average
Item Group:  Incorrect Behavior
Resolution:  Fixed

Fixed Release:  CVS


Summary:  <include> element doesn't look for resource files in $OUTDIR$

Original Submission:  IIUC, the intended behavior for <include> is to look for 
the resource files in $OUTDIR$ if no path is specified.  This doesn't work 
correctly due to a missing directory separator in mhrcfile.pl (example below).  
The attached patch fixes the issue.  Thanks.

Example -- the following won't include incfile.rc:

cd /
mkdir -p /tmp/mhonarctest
cat > /tmp/mhonarctest/rcfile.rc << EOF
<include>
incfile.rc
</include>
<title>
$BLAH$
</title>
EOF
cat > /tmp/mhonarctest/incfile.rc << EOF
<definevar>
BLAH
somevalue
</definevar>
EOF
mhonarc -add -rcfile rcfile.rc -outdir /tmp/mhonarctest mbox
