Hi,

I really appreciate what you've done with Sparkle. It's a great piece of software that really smoothens the user experience about updates.

I'm using an application that use Sparkle for it's update mechanism : Alfred - http://www.alfredapp.com/
I have a small issue that I tought was related to Alfred, but it might be related to Sparkle after all.

I'm a big user of the terminal and command line sofware, and I've noticed that sometimes, there is an environment variable in my session, with a value related to Alfred.

DESTINATION=/var/folders/2_/d1tjjlwj0rv46nlv7p8b1rd40000gn/T/Alfred 189 Update

I've noticed this because one of my scripts is using a DESTINATION environment variable if it is set.
Usually i do something like this to set a value : $ my_command DESTINATION=some_value

I don't know why sometimes, my environment has this value, but it clearly comes from Alfred and/or it's updating mechanism.

Is there anything you or I can do to solve this?

Thanks for your help, and for making Sparkle.
Jeremy
