Description Radoslaw Szkodzinski 2009-02-10 16:53:11 UTC
There is no way to disable the "*FLAGS can break packages" warning
and it has a 5 second delay. This delay applies to each package... becoming important when building 300 of them or the like.

Please fix by making it possible to bypass, e.g. by setting a variable in make.conf. Right now the only way is to make a separate profile.

I propose if $I_KNOW_WHAT_I_AM_DOING is set, then this message is supressed..
Comment 2 Dawid Węgliński (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-03-20 10:26:57 UTC
There is only one profile with this, so i kindly propose you to change profile to ../profiles/default/linux/amd64/2008.0 since default-linux/ is going to be obsolete afaik.
Comment 3 Radoslaw Szkodzinski 2009-03-20 19:03:11 UTC
Interesting. Is that documented anywhere?
Comment 4 Radoslaw Szkodzinski 2009-03-21 23:28:07 UTC
The profile still has the warning, this time in arch/amd64/profile.bashrc.

I suggest to keep showing the message but allow people to skip the sleep, as I think that it's still interesting to inform the user preventing him from sending us bug reports while it uses that flags

Attached diff should do the trick, but I haven't tested it yet :-S

QA team, what do you think is the best solution for this? Thanks :-)
Comment 9 Tomáš Chvátal (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-03-30 14:45:00 UTC
The bashrc stuff was dropped from profiles while back.
