In addition to specifying CFLAGS at configure time, you can also give an override at compile time, like so make CFLAGS="-ggdb -O0" Of course, this will only affect those files that get recompiled but with `make clean` (or selective removal of *.la and *.lo files) that should be easy to control. I use this approach quite a bit to avoid a time consuming configure step and only override stuff for those files I want to focus on.

By configuring with CFLAGS=-ggdb and --without-snmp I can do the debug I need without optimized out functions or variables. Regards, Stef

To get the include path for the net-snmp library, the binary "net-snmp-config" is called with --cflags and the result is appended to CFLAGS. Unfortunately, reinhold at einstein:~$ net-snmp-config --cflags -g -O2 -Ulinux -Dlinux=linux -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wwrite-strings -Wcast- qual -I. -I/home/reinhold/.build/include Judging from the output of net-snmp-config --help, there is no other way to get the correct include pathes / libraries to link to net-snmp without dragging in all unneeded compiler flags...

Is > there an easy way to get CFLAGS=-ggdb when configuring SANE ? Have you ever looked at "./configure --help" to find out what options the configure script supports? There you'll see: Usage: ./configure [OPTION]... [VAR=VALUE]... To assign environment variables (e.g., CC, CFLAGS...), specify them as VAR=VALUE. See below for descriptions of some of the useful variables. [...] Some influential environment variables: CC C compiler command CFLAGS C compiler flags LDFLAGS linker flags, e.g. -L if you have libraries in a nonstandard directory LIBSlibraries to pass to the linker, e.g. -l [...] So, it is sufficient to simply call the configure script as: ./configure CFLAGS=-ggdbg (If CFLAGS is set, the configure script uses its value, otherwise it uses the default of "-g -O2", which is what you want to prevent).

Hello, in order to debug more efficiently, I have to re-edit Makefiles to remove the two -O2 options in CFLAGS and change the -g to the -ggdb option. Is there an easy way to get CFLAGS=-ggdb when configuring SANE ? Regards, Stef
