#2612: GetComponents assumes that $USER is defined

Reporter: Roland Haas Status: new Milestone: Version: development version Type: bug Priority: minor Component: GetComponents

Currently GetComponents assumes that the `$USER` environment variable is set. This is not true inside of docker containers and requires some workarounds in the Dockerfile to handle correctly.

Pull request [https://github.com/gridaphobe/CRL/pull/11/files%5D(https://github.com/gridap...) instead uses Perl’s `getpwuid` to get the user name from the OS which does not rely on USER. I tested getpwuid to work fine in a Ubuntu container.
