Why are you checking for "log" here? I thought VOLATILE_LOG_DIR was
supposed to be a boolean?

Using oe.types.boolean in shell code is a bit awkward, but would be
necessary for the sake of consistency when allowing VOLATILE_LOG_DIR to
have more than just yes/no. Untested (relies on bool->str conversion):

if [ ${@ oe.types.boolean('${VOLATILE_LOG_DIR}') } = True ]; then
