which account I was sending from) |

Recently a bug was filed against one of my packages with something I had |
| 8 |
thought was impossible, package wasn't respecting CFLAGS: |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=426766 |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
The reason I thought this was impossible, was because I have |
| 13 |
- -frecord-gcc-switches in CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS (and it's a C++ application). |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
I opened up a bug to learn more, and learned a lot very quickly: |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=427654 |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
As it turns out, it is documented inside portage itself that CFLAGS, |
| 20 |
CXXFLAGS, FFLAGS, FCFLAGS all need to have -frecord-gcc-switches or the |
| 21 |
QA mechanism doesn't work. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
It would seem to me that we could get all these QA warning out of the |
| 24 |
way very quickly by adding -frecord-gcc-switches to the *FLAGS in the |
| 25 |
base profile (it appears to be platform agnostic but if I'm wrong we can |
| 26 |
add it for supported arches). |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
YES, I admit this will cause users to see warnings for a short period of |
| 29 |
adjustment, but it will be non-fatal and help us get all these packages |
| 30 |
resolved much faster. It shouldn't be up to flameeyes to be the only |
| 31 |
one doing QA like this (because I thought I was but clearly I've been |
| 32 |
doing it wrong and I can't be alone in that). |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
Thanks, |
| 35 |
