Issue: games-emulation/ppsspp-1.14 overwrites user's optimization (-O*).
Discovered on: amd64 (internal ref: ci)

NOTE:
unless there are known issues with -O* configured by the user, the build system should not overwrite -O*.

Comment 2 Ionen Wolkens gentoo-dev 2022-12-15 22:18:57 UTC
This looks invalid to me, seems to be same -O fine?

And don't think this check is going to work for various reasons, sometimes overriding is wanted for certain files / packages because of known issues too.
Comment 3 Maciej Barć gentoo-dev 2022-12-15 22:24:42 UTC
It compiles with -O2 as instructed by the CFLAGS, what is the error here?
Btw it compiles correctly with -O3 on my system.
Comment 4 Ionen Wolkens gentoo-dev 2022-12-15 22:55:52 UTC
Well, actually it looks like it's forcing -O2 for 7 files, "-O2.*-O2", not that I think it's something worth fixing in general.

There are packages where that's intentional too (e.g. mkvtoolnix needs to force -O0 for one file to prevent near-hanging).

Note I meant that more for when there's just a few compilation lines that do this, not when it overrides every files.
