Dummy Warpin entries in *wrong* database - wpi4rpm error?

[losepete]

Having used ANPM to update some files I had error messages about not being able to identify the correct DATBAS_?.INI to use and a new file, DATBAS_D.INI, was created as a result.

I have 3 ArcaOS installations on the same disk, H: L: M:

Warpin can handle this without problems as it uses DATBAS_H.INI when booted from H:, DATBAS_L.INI when booted from L: and DATBAS_M.INI when booted from M:

Here is an ANPM log snippet showing the problem:-

Surely wpi4rpm should check what boot drive letter is in use and select the DATBAS_?.INI file based on the boot drive letter to avoid the above problem.

Related is that the entries in DATBAS_D.INI cannot be read by Warpin, some sort of header problem, so the DATBAS_D.INI file is of no use to anyone - especially Warpin.

Fixed in latest release of wpi4rpm.cmd
