X-Newsgroups: list.freebsd-ports User-Agent: tin/1.5.4-20000523 ("1959") (UNIX) (FreeBSD/4.7-RELEASE (i386)) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Sender: owner-freebsd-ports@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hi, I'm currently making an entry for the ports collection. The porters handbook says that the NO_PACKAGE flag should be set if the Makefile ignores $CC and instead uses cc (hardcoded). What exactly is the reason for that? I mean, I can build a package without problems, and I can install and use the package fine on other machines with different $CC settings. So I don't understand that NO_PACKAGE restriction. Thanks in advance for enlighting me! Regards Oliver PS: BTW, the port that I'm doing _does_ respect $CFLAGS, if that matters. -- Oliver Fromme, secnetix GmbH & Co KG, Oettingenstr. 2, 80538 München Any opinions expressed in this message may be personal to the author and may not necessarily reflect the opinions of secnetix in any way.
