From: Dejan Lesjak To: freebsd-gnats-submit@freebsd.org, ahze@ahze.net Cc: Subject: Re: ports/65277: [PATCH] devel/imake-4: [Respect CC & CXX (which will respect CC&CXX on almost every port that uses imake] Date: Sat, 6 Nov 2004 19:52:43 +0100 Unfortunately, the suggested patch would only provide different set of defaults for CC, CXX and CPP that would be available at imake compile time. These are, however, only defaults. The build infrastructure, already takes into account the values of those variables. In other words these variables get put in Makefiles created by imake, but they can be overriden following usual make(1) rules. At least X11 ports (XFree86-4-libraries for example) do respect these variables on command line or in /etc/make.conf no matter what the setting in FreeBSD.cf is. Are there any particular ports that have problems with this?
