 Thomas, thanks for pointing out.
 Kambe-san, thanks for fixing ruby18-base.
 
 However, we have more instances in the tree that uses variables in DESCR.
 A quick grep found the following packages:
 
 converters/enriched2html
 devel/bcc
 editors/xcoral
 lang/f2c
 lang/ruby18
 misc/libutf
 pkgtools/x11-links
 pkgtools/xpkgwedge
 print/apsfilter
 print/ja-vflib-lib
 print/tex-musixtex
 security/uvscan
 sysutils/safetynet
 textprox/ezxml
 www/SpeedyCGI
 www/lhs
 
 Even one of them is owned by Kambe-san!
 
 Should I file PRs for each package? ;)
 Maybe we should have a check in the pkglint script.
