I just looked at this again. I think I found the root cause of the issue:
swatch.conf had "lang=en" in it, which is now incorrect. Nowadays it must be
"en_US" instead. Likewise the swatch RPM only had the old "en" language
folder, but was missing the now needed "en_US" folder.
But once I had changed that, I couldn't confirm that it really fixed the
problem as swatch - on my end - was already behaving just fine without those
fixes.
So I just went ahead and incorporated your suggestions as well. The cronjob
now calls a script with the exports in it. Better safe than sorry.
The updated Swatch is hitting the repositories in a few minutes.
