If -DNDEBUG is in CFLAGS from make.conf, tor refuses to build due to a check with the following logic in src/lib/log/util_debug.h: #ifdef NDEBUG #error Sorry, building with -DNDEBUG not supported #endif This check does not allow a package.env override where -DNDEBUG=0 is added to CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, etc. at the end. The preprocessor behaves exactly the same for #ifdef X and #if X when the command line passes -DX=0. However, the logic above rejects a compile command line with -DNDEBUG followed by -DNDEBUG=0 becuase NDEBUG is in fact defined. Changing the check to #if NDEBUG gives identical behavior while also allowing override in package.env Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Add -DNDEBUG to CFLAGS in /etc/portage/make.conf 2. Add override in package.env where -DNDEBUG=0 is appended to CFLAGS for package net-vpn/tor 2. emerge -1 net-vpn/tor Actual Results: emerge fails with message saying -DNDEBUG is not supported Expected Results: emerge succeeds and net-vpn/tor is build such that asserts are enabled $ emerge --info Portage 3.0.47 (python 3.11.3-final-0, default/linux/amd64/17.1/desktop/plasma/systemd, gcc-13,

Couldn't you do -UNDEBUG in package.env? Anyway, this needs to be reported upstream. Could you do that?
Created attachment 861409 [details, diff] patch
(In reply to Sam James from comment #1) > Couldn't you do -UNDEBUG in package.env? > > Anyway, this needs to be reported upstream. Could you do that? I was unaware of this preprocessor option. Thanks. Please close the bug report.
No worries, thank you!
