A zero byte make.conf file would work with certain conditions. Those |
| 11 |
conditions would be: |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
1. If the config file make.conf does not exists, create it. |
| 14 |
2. If the config file does exist because the admin put it there or portage |
| 15 |
did, do not try to install a new one. |

I've seen several source installs do this when I was doing LFS. |
