This made me laugh, which is quite strange cause I'm at home with severe headache and fever. NO. We -cannot- test the compile flags. In fact most developers simply invalidate bugs from people with CFLAGS above the normal. Won't Even Touch It until you rebuild your whole dependency-tree with less CFLAGS. > If not how can I specify different flags for different packages? Commandline. CFLAGS="-march=i386 -mcpu=i686 -O2 -pipe" emerge reiserfstools Simple: by adding insane CFLAGS you shoot yourself into nomansland, and won't get support. //Spider -- begin .signature This is a .signature virus!
