Something like STRIP_MASK="/lib64/ld-* /lib/ld-*" I believe you can't. You would have to resort to /etc/portage/bashrc hacks to override ebuilds' value. Requesting new feature from dev-portage@ sounds reasonable. For example, add STRIP_MASK_USER to be controlled by user. STRIP_MASK is normally used for cases when software breaks when stripped (examples: not-quite-ELF files, not-yet-linked .o files). Not something for convenience or niche purposes. STRIP_MASK_USER might be a good way to fine-grain desired policy of stripping package on top of existing FEATURES=nostrip knob. -- Sergei
