This means one still has to monitor the output. > In my /etc/make.conf I have: > > PORTAGE_ELOG_CLASSES="info warn error log" > PORTAGE_ELOG_SYSTEM="mail syslog" > PORTAGE_ELOG_MAILURI="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" Thank you for pointing this out. It is a new stuff for me. I'll investigate the documentation and give it a try. --snip > If you tell it to, portage will log every last > configure and gcc statement spewed forth on the command line into > /var/log/portage/. Yes, I already have about 400MB of logs there. I still wonder when will come the day I'll wipe them out. :) > Gentoo generally overwrites C(XX)FLAGS only when they are problematic > (unpredictable or cause breakage) for certain platforms/packages.

Up to now in case I want to change something or the packages doesn't compile the normal way, my practice is to use "ebuild `equery w package-name` unpack", do my things in the temp dir, compile manually, put a file ".compiled" and resume the installation. May be I'll start using my own overlay after I collect "enough" packages. -- Best regards, Daniel -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
