Best practice seems to conflict with pkitool

tiptongrange

The instructions at the top of the /etc/easy-rsa/vars file recommend to copy the directory to /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/ and work from there so that updates won't wipe out edits you've made, then source the vars file at the new location. However, the second line of the pkitool script is

. ./etc/easy-rsa/vars

which overwrites the previous source command and causes the build-key commands to use the original vars file instead of the new one. What would be the best practice to get around this problem?

I'm running OpenWRT Chaos Calmer r44596 which comes with openvpn-easy-rsa 2013-01-30-2 and openvpn-openssl 2.3.6-3 preinstalled.
