Description Zurd 2006-07-27 02:30:53 UTC 
As shown there :
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=72325

Some variables are confusing, should we set them to 0, "false", or "no" ?

From "man make.conf" :
EPAUSE_IGNORE
Defines whether or not to ignore short pauses that occur when displaying important informational messages.  This variable is unset by default.

The title should be modified to something like that :
EPAUSE_IGNORE = [ 1 | 0 ]

Others good examples from "man make.conf" :
CLEAN_DELAY = integer
CONFIG_PROTECT = [space delimited list of dirs]
FEATURES = "sandbox ccache autoaddcvs"
Comment 1 Marius Mauch (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-01-11 10:09:48 UTC 
Well, for EPAUSE_IGNORE any value (other than "") means true. Added a note to the manpage about this.
Comment 2 Zac Medico gentoo-dev 2007-01-12 08:09:53 UTC 
Fixed in svn r5552.
