Bug 349897 – ADD LIBTOOLFLAGS to emerge --info

• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Jory A. Pratt 2010-12-27 20:48:41 UTC]

Add support for libtoolflags to be defined via make.conf without adding them to makeopts.

There's nothing that really prevents you from using LIBTOOLFLAGS in make.conf, is there? Isn't it just that you want the user interface (like emerge --info) to display it as it does for similar variables like LDFLAGS? The patch that you posted in #gentoo-dev had it added to the list of variables to be exported in ebuild.sh. I guess that would be fine, but generally this is not necessary since all variables from make.conf or package.env are automatically exported anyway (since they are passed from the parent process in the exec call).
