[gentoo-dev] Suggestion to update emake

Hi!

Agriffins had a great idea how to use emake. 

emake || make || die

causing the ebuild to try to use emake and if failing falling back to
make before dying.

I think it would be very nice to do this inside the emake macro. In that
case all ebuilds could use 'emake' instead of, as now, some use emake
and some doesn't.

Regards,

Hi!

Just wondering what emake exactly does.. Does it just make use of the
make flags in /etc/make.conf?

Cheers,

Yes,

exec env make ${MAKEOPTS} "$@"

I've committed this change to emake.  Emake should be safe for most
packages; there will still be a broken Makefile here or there that
doesn't work with emake.
