Description Andrew Chambers 2004-11-09 08:26:04 UTC

Setting (for example) ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" in /etc/make.conf doesn't do anything.  Emerge always uses the variable as it is set in /etc/make.profile/make.defaults 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.echo "ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=\"~x86\"" >> /etc/make.conf
2.emerge --info | grep ACCEPT_KEYWORDS
3.

Actual Results:  
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" displayed in standard output

Expected Results:  
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" displayed in standard output

ACCEPT_KEYWORDS is added together, it is not set absolutely

are you sure you spelled it correctly in make.conf ?

Don't I feel like an idiot!  I'm sorry for wasting your time.
