Comment 1 David Cantrell 2008-08-29 21:56:56 UTC

The problem with this was the initial value of $metric was set to '', instead of being an empty string.  The actual offending line was:

metric="${METRIC:-''}"

The double quotes cause the '' to be interpreted as the value for metric.  I could either remove the double quotes or remove the single quotes, but I couldn't have both.

Fixed in dhcp-4.0.0-23.fc10

Thanks for the report.
