Description Petteri Räty (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-08-30 21:41:17 UTC
make DESTDIR=${D} "scrollkeeper_localstate_dir=${D}${sk_tmp_dir} " "$@" install || die "install failed"

should use emake here nowadays

Is there some advantage to this?  Or is it just asthetics?  Obviously, it's nicer to have ebuilds use emake, because everyone sees them, but this is an eclass; changing it will cause huge metadata churn for the whole world.  Is there any gain to it?

(I'm not against it; I'm merely prioritizing)

Yes. It makes using MAKEOPTS possible and respects the MAKE variable. It's also  the way to do it told by policy. I regularly change Java eclasses that are used by hundreds of ebuilds... It's only a strain on the servers generating the metadata cache any way.

Seems like a typo or something as that bug is about qmail.
