As part of the upgrade to v7r2 in LHCb we found jobs started crashing with:
The problem is that the LocalSite part of the CS not being filled as the
pilot.cfgfile is missing.The cause is that the Executable in the job wrapper is now
dirac-jobexecinstead of$DIRACROOT/scripts/dirac-jobexec. DIRAC v7r1 only copies the pilot.cfg if$DIRACROOTis found in theExecutablename so existing pilots running v7r1 with filling mode fail to execute jobs that were submitted with v7r2.Nothing can be done to fix the pilots in LHCb but this should make upgrading smoother for other installations.

FIX: Look for
dirac-jobexecinstead of$DIRACROOTto decide when to copy thepilot.cfgto improve compatibility with v7r2ENDRELEASENOTES
