Subject: [gentoo-pms] [PATCH] pkg-mgr-commands: Replace MAKEOPTS conf var with explicit description
Date: Fri, 13 May 2016 22:00:18
Message-Id: 1463176802-19338-1-git-send-email-mgorny@gentoo.org
1 Replace the mentioning of MAKEOPTS configuration variable with generic
2 description of 'make options'. This is in line with other parts of the
3 specification where we avoid referencing package manager configuration
4 explicitly. Furthermore, MAKEOPTS was only mentioned this one time with
5 no explanatory description and no guarantee of being exported to the
6 ebuild environment, so it is better to avoid making developers think it
7 is reliable.
