 just fine.
 
 the func is used by other code where you dont want to screw with commas.  
   
The commas are only added when there's LDFLAGS being changed.
 plus, there are a few other ways to trick the system.

 my opinion is still:
  - bypassing the system is sometimes useful

Ok, but in the default profiles LDFLAGS are separated with commas, so
for that second opinion to be possible, I think that should be changed.

On the other hand, a lot of us use comma separated flags, so for all of
us filter-ldflags doesn't work, and what I've modify doesn't mess with
any of all the other function (or at least I haven't found the case in
which it does).
 so thanks, but no thanks

Anyway, filter-ldflags doesn't work like it is right now, I'm not saying
use _my_ code, but use whatever you think it's best to fix this.

(Please, don't CC me, I'm already in gentoo-dev list)

you missed my point.  read the whole eclass -- this function isnt only used on 
LDFLAGS.  your patch opens the door to incorrectly split/mangle other 
variables.

i really have no idea what you're talking about.  no default profile uses the 
multi-linker flag form.

 us filter-ldflags doesn't work, and what I've modify doesn't mess with
 any of all the other function (or at least I haven't found the case in

then change your LDFLAGS

i dont see any bug so you're going to have to be more specific

Yes, of course, but the not-comma separated form of LDFLAGS isn't the
most commonly used one. So it's not that I'm a case of rebelty :)

no, it really doesnt.  it took me two seconds to put together an example where 
your change corrupted CFLAGS.  an unlikely value, but a valid value 
nonetheless, which means your proposal is unacceptable on that merit alone.

 /usr/portage/profiles/default/linux/make.defaults:53:LDFLAGS=-Wl,-O1

how is that relevant ?  people use `filter-flags -Wl,-O1`, they dont use 
`filter-flags -O1`.  this is not multiple linker flags combined into one -Wl.

[gentoo-dev] Changes to flag-o-matic's _filter-var

2010-02-24 Thread ChIIph
Hello everyone,

Here are some minor changes I'd like to propose to flag-o-matic's
_filter-var() to work properly with LDFLAGS.
Without this, things like -Wl,-O1,--as-needed won't be affected by any
kind of filter since there are no spaces to separate each flag.

I don't know of any better way to do this, but here's a patch that works
just fine.

Regards,
Tomas
