Environment overrides make.conf settings, so # source make.conf to get its settings first . /etc/make.conf export CFLAGS="$CFLAGS <newflag>" emerge <whatever> unset CFLAGS should work. Of course, if you want to change the CFLAGS entirely, a simple CFLAGS="<whatever>" emerge <whatever> will work. However, that sets CFLAGS absolutely, not adding it to the current CFLAGS, so it's probably not what is wanted in this case. There has been talk for some time of adding packages.cflags file support to portage, so it always compiles specific packages with specific cflags, much as the existing package.* support works for use/mask/unmask, but it hasn't been done directly. It can however already be done indirectly, using /etc/portage/bashrc support, sourcing a script of your own creation that changes CFLAGS based on the package being merged or whatever other conditions you wish. In fact, there are bashrc solutions floating around out there adding this and a few other similar features as well. I've personally not found the lack of those features enough of a problem to try the solutions myself, but I've seen them posted a few times. -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
