Description Sven Wegener gentoo-dev 2005-07-09 07:07:55 UTC 
The following code is just wrong, MAKEOPTS is set by users and should not be used this way:

MAKEOPTS='PREFIX=/usr MANDIR=share/man'
[...]
        emake ${MAKEOPTS} CC="$(tc-getCC)" || die
Comment 1 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2005-07-09 10:03:28 UTC 
also, passing $MAKEOPTS to emake is pointless since it will just end up running
`make $MAKEOPTS $MAKEOPTS ...`

Fixed in CVS, thanks for the heads up.
