Description Jukka Salmi 2002-12-12 16:39:00 UTC

maildrop doesn't like being compiled without frame pointers (see
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=1403942&forum_id=2347 ff.).

additionally, when erasing certain compiler options from $CFLAGS and $CXXFLAGS,
i'd recommend replacing ALL occurencies of those options: ${FOO//bar/} instead
of ${FOO/bar/}. for maildrop-xyz.ebuild that is:

export CFLAGS="${CFLAGS//-funroll-loops/}"
export CFLAGS="${CFLAGS//-fomit-frame-pointer/}"
export CXXFLAGS="${CXXFLAGS//-funroll-loops/}"
export CXXFLAGS="${CXXFLAGS//-fomit-frame-pointer/}"

or use the filter-flags eclass -- much cleaner

Comment 2 Nick Hadaway 2002-12-21 16:20:21 UTC

I have updated all maildrop ebuilds to filter out -fomit-frame-pointer and -
funroll-loops
