From /usr/portage/profiles/use.desc : --- cut here --- debug - Tells configure and the makefiles to build for debugging. Effects vary acrosss packages, but generally it will at least add -g to CFLAGS. Remember to set FEATURES+=nostrip too. --- cut here --- Set "debug" USE flag and add nostrip to FEATURES and you can do some debugging. Cheers, Renat -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
