Does the output reflect;
1. What will be used for the next build
2. What was used on the last successful build
3. What was used on the last build attempt

If its 1 or 3, then USE=custom-cflags does not work on firefox...

Portage initializes everything, reads your make.conf, applies the
profile variables, etc. in the order that they would be used for any
other "emerge ..." action, and then it dumps everything to the screen.
So it's "what will be used for the next build, if nothing changes
between now and then."

Firefox is very finicky about CFLAGS. That's the only reason we have
USE=custom-cflags in the first place; otherwise, we always try to
respect them.

custom-cflags is currently filtered out according to the before and after
USE definition from emerge --info

What is the logic of that?

Can you see if this helps get you what you want?

emerge --info firefox 

At the bottom, it has info specific to firefox but don't know if it will
be what you are looking for or not.

Yeah that's what i'm talking about. The custom-cflags is forced unset on
the second (filtered) output of USE, so why have it if you force it off?
Perhaps there's other factors that affect if it gets allowed through or
forced off?

One thing is the ebuild and the other is the profile:
It might be different in a different profile.

Ok ill have a look though the profiles to see what they're doing.

It reflects what is currently right now in make.conf with zero
consideration to last, future, next or previous builds.

Thanks. That's what I was trying, but failing, to say with #1,

[gentoo-user] emerge --info

[Willie Wong]

Where does emerge --info retrieve compiler information?

I am in the middle of trying to upgrade to gcc-4.1.1, and wanted to
file a bug report on some packages that is failing (which worked with
gcc-3.4.6), and I did emerge --info and saw:

Portage 2.1.2_pre1 (default-linux/x86/2006.0, gcc-3.4.6/vanilla

Why doesn't it say gcc-4.1.1?

Thanks, 

Willie

had you defined that you want to use gcc-4 with gcc-config?

of course. That is what I did:

1) gcc-config 6 (after which gcc-config -l shows that 
   [6] i686-pc-linux-gnu-4.1.1 *
   is the selected compiler).
2) fix_lib_tools.sh 3.4.6
3) emerge -e system

at this point emerge --info shows what I posted originally:

Portage 2.1.2_pre1 (default-linux/x86/2006.0, gcc-3.4.6/vanilla

You really should follow the gcc upgrade guide [1], which tells you to:

source /etc/profile

at this point.

I did follow the guide and did source /etc/profile. I just forgot to
type that step in in composing the e-mail. And I have a .bash_history
to back me up ;p

I did a bit of experimentation, actually, and found that the behaviour
is different on my laptop and on my desktop. On my laptop where this
problem originates (default-linux profile and ~x86 keyword):

1) no matter what I do with gcc-config (and sourcing /etc/profile
afterwards of course), the emerge --info gives the same compiler. 

2) To actually affect the emerge --info I need to use 'eselect
compiler set', i.e. now that I issued 'eselect compiler set 6', my
emerge --info reads correctly
Portage 2.1.2_pre1 (default-linux/x86/2006.0, gcc-4.1.1/vanilla

But on my desktop (which is on a hardened profile with x86 keyword)

3) gcc-config would successfully change the output of emerge --info

4) and 'eselect compiler' returns
"!!! Error: Can't load module compiler"
which is natural, since eselect-compiler is keyworded ~x86. 

Are those the intended behaviour? Or is something seriously wacked up?

Sorry, although we aren't psychic, so we can only base responses on

eselect compiler should not work *anywhere* as eselect-compiler is
currently package masked for everybody [1].

Ah, I got it on my system before the pmask, and never did realize that
it was masked. Now I've unmerged eselect-compiler and all is good.
