Bug 220103 – Emerge of insight 6.7.1-r1 fails due to CFLAGS changing during configure

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description drumz 2008-05-03 11:45:47 UTC]

While trying to upgrade insight to the latest available version, the emerge fails with the following error:

configure: configuring in testsuite

So why don't you remove the extra space from your CFLAGS? 

CFLAGS="-march=k8 -O2 -pipe "

to

CFLAGS="-march=k8 -O2 -pipe"

?

Thanks, that did it.

But it raises the question as to why this is the only package that's been affected by that?  I haven't edited the make.conf file in a very long time (> 6 months, probably longer than that for the CFLAGS line in the file) and I keep my server up to date so packages have been emerged on a regular basis.....

It's hardly the only package that trips over superfluous whitespace. IIRC, apache had problems with CFLAGS=" [OPTIONS] " a good while ago, and probably still does.
