Hi All, |

Portage 1.5.3 has been released, and contains two basic fixes. It should no |
| 4 |
longer be necessary to backslash-escape double-quotes when using "try", "emake" |
| 5 |
or "pmake" (older name for emake). For example, instead of typing: |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
try make CFLAGS=\"$CFLAGS\" |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
One can now type: |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
try make CFLAGS="$CFLAGS" |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
The only ebuild that has been updated so far is sys-apps/tmpreaper. All others |
| 14 |
will need to be fixed. Thanks to a message on the MOSIX mailing list that |
| 15 |
demonstrated the subtle differences between $* and "$@", which allowed this fix |
| 16 |
to happen. |
| 17 |
|

Everyone should upgrade to 1.5.3 as soon as possible. |

Dan Armak, if you are up to doing a Portage-wide fix, that would be great :) |
