i notice the same and can confirm it.

One Portage Feature in make.conf is "stricter".

Comment 2 Tomasz Golinski 2021-05-24 12:14:20 UTC

The stable version 0.57 is also affected. It complicates perl update...

why does it make things complicated? Does it blow up things on your end?

Comment 4 Michael Moon 2021-05-25 03:14:05 UTC

How? This is a warning, not fatal.

In general, don’t use stricter. The warning is real but not going to affect end users.
