Fix from bug 304625, Comment #5: + 29 Jun 2010; Samuli Suominen <ssuominen@gentoo.org> smlnj-110.71.ebuild: + Respect environment flags and targets wrt #243886 by Michael Weber. + Still needs to go upstream I've now fixed this issue with a slight variation of Michael Weber's patch (see bug 304625, thanks xmw!), but I'm leaving this bug open until an upstream solution is available. |
I'm filing this bug (from a template, mind you) because the ebuild I'm reporting it against failed to build once I removed my /usr/bin/{gcc,cc,c++,c99} binaries. This means that the ebuild is relying on gcc or cc as compiler, while it should use "$(tc-getCC)" so that user choices are respected, and cross-compiling works as intended. This usually comes down to one of these tasks: - use emake CC="$(tc-getCC)" for building, to ovewrite make's CC variable (defaults to "cc", some upstream rewrites it); - the above plus replacing explicit "gcc" (or similar) calls with $(CC) so that the variable is actually respected; - tc-export CC in src_compile before eventual econf. For C++, you'd have to replace CC with CXX everywhere above, of course. If your package is a special case on this, please let me know. Thanks, Diego
