If it's a one-time thing, you can set the EXTRA_ECONF environment
variable to contain the extra arguments to ./configure. The contents of
EXTRA_ECONF are appended to the end of the usual command, so yours
should take precedence. Just be sure to set it only while emerging
enchant (and not, for example, during emerge @world).





Thanks! That did the trick:

EXTRA_ECONF="--without-applespell --enable-relocatable" emerge --verbose 
app-text/enchant


Cheers!
Chris

Hi
I am a relative newbee to GenToo (*though familiar with all sorts of 
Unix/Linux/BSD OS)

I am currently unable to complete a sync / build @world cycle because of a
bug building enchant-2.2.8 , compile fails because it doesn't recognize the
ObjC "@" syntax.  There is a bug filed :
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=718634
that has a suggested fix that looks appropriate:

./configure --without-applespell --without-aspell --enable-relocatable

(Not sure about the --without-aspell bit, and I think this bug may have 
some relation to

using GNUstep bits)

How do I override the ./configure options for emerge  [-r] ?

Chris
