According to make.conf man: PORTAGE_COMPRESS = "bzip2" This variable contains the command used to compress documentation during the install phase. PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS = "-9" This variable contains flags for the PORTAGE_COMPRESS command. so if you define then in /etc/make.conf euse should understand/ignore them.

How are they defined? They work here portage-2.1.2.7
Attach your make.conf here, please.
(In reply to comment #1) > How are they defined? They work here portage-2.1.2.7 As you see in the 'emerge --info' I've pasted, just between PKGDIR and PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS. (In reply to comment #2) > Attach your make.conf here, please. ok.
Created attachment 120177 [details] requested make.conf
Remove the whitespace around the = sign, euse needs make.conf to be sourcable by bash.
