#1975: Please allow CC override of default compiler
--------------------------------+-------------------------------------------
Reporter: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Type: defect
Status: new | Priority: minor
Component: madwifi: makefiles | Version: v0.9.4
Keywords: | Patch_attached: 0
--------------------------------+-------------------------------------------
I have a (stock Debian) kernel built with gcc-4.1, which is installed on
the system. There is no 'gcc' (without version) executable, therefore I
normally execute "export CC=gcc-4.1" before building modules. When I try
to build madwifi I get the following error:
{{{
lazarus:/usr/src/madwifi-0.9.4# export CC=gcc-4.1
lazarus:/usr/src/madwifi-0.9.4# make
Checking requirements... ok.
Checking kernel configuration... ok.
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.22-3-686/build SUBDIRS=/usr/src/madwifi-0.9.4

}}}
If I go to /usr/bin and create a link gcc->gcc-4.1 the driver builds
correctly.
Can the CC variable please be taken into account in all makefiles?
