Why wouldn't it work? I'm working around an infelicity in crossdev-enabled |
14 |
packages, where the USE flag for supporting multiple ABIs for the target |
15 |
is masked by the profile for the build host, which is actually totally |
16 |
irrelevant to the --enable-multilib configure option to (e.g.) newlib. |

Is there some way to specify a totally different profile (per ARCH) for |
19 |
cross-ARCH/* packages? (Ideally, it would only be somewhat seperate, in |
20 |
case the build arch needs to determine some of the stuff, while the target |
21 |
arch determines most of the important stuff for this sort of package.) |

In any case, /etc/portage/profile is what I needed to know, thanks. |
