Hi,

by way of an introduction: I maintain the x11/x2go-client package on pkgsrc (<https://pkgsrc.se/x11/x2go-client>).

The package has a few patches, which you may be interested in.

While updating to 4.1.2.3, I stumbled over a build problem: In <https://gitlab.x2go.org/x2go/client/x2goclient/-/commit/fc2db75ab86889cdde6448c4e6e5a25c431d212d>, the MAKEOVERRIDES variable is supposedly set to a list of make variables that are safe to propagate to sub-make processes.*

I find that this breaks the build, since gmake (v4.4.1 here) interprets the first word ("SHELL") as target, which it cannot find. Coincidentally, the Arch package <https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=x2goclient> also has a sed(1) command that cleans out the lists.

What was the motivation of the change? And where does it actually work?

Cheerio,
Hauke


* The *BSD variants are rather pointless, btw, since the rest of the Makefile has non-portable constructs and won't work at least with NetBSD's make(1)
