[Pkg-ltsp-devel] Bug#403471: Bug in the handling of boolean settings retrieved from lts.conf

[Miro Zhorelicky]

Package: ldm
Version: 0.99debian8
Severity: important
Tags: patch

I tried to set up sound support by setting SOUND = Y in the lts.conf, and 
the ESPEAKER environment variable was not sent to the server.

The bug is in the /usr/sbin/ldm executable. This is the patch:
