Description nth 2002-12-22 11:31:14 UTC
My concern is the DEBUGBUILD flag defined by the portage system (and its possible values)
- Most scripts (ebuilds + portage) just define 2 states : empty string / non empty string
- the only place where portage would SET debugbuild, it sets it to "yes" (which serves as a non empty string)
- Mozilla ebuilds expect 2 different values : "yes" / empty string
- XFree ebuild expect 2 different values : "true" / empty string

  So my guess is that, in respect to some convention, Mozilla and XFree ebuilds should only expect non empty or empty strings for debugbuild.
  Maybe the convention would be "yes" / empty string, in this case, only XFree ebuild should change.

  Regards, nth.   ( btw, please forgive my very bad english ... :/ )
