Hello. I recently found the very convenient option EXTRA_ECONF that one can use in make.conf. And the most interesting thing to use it for, is to quiet down all those “Checking…” messages with “EXTRA_ECONF="-q"”. I just did an emerge -e system, and up until half of the ~250 packages, this worked flawlessly. So one can assume that this works with practically all packages. But the configure script of ed apparently doesn’t recognize the option. Therefore I would be grateful if you could make that work. It’s just a small thing, yes. But it’s also not much work. :) Reproducible: Always
It's not an autotools based configure script.
Ah. So using -q in EXTRA_ECONF is generally a bad idea? Too bad it can’t be made that it only works on autotools-based scripts though. Anyway. I guess this is solved then…
EXTRA_ECONF is strictly only allowed for autotools based configure scripts, so if it isn't one, this is a bug

(In reply to comment #4) > http://sources.gentoo.org/sys-apps/ed/ed-1.5.ebuild?r1=1.2&r2=1.3 There is no diff there. Even when I click on “Show”. I don’t understand what this is supposed to tell me… That nothing was changed from 1.2 to 1.3? ^^
