Problem is not in this environment variable(which influence on few packages like webkit-gtk, libreoffice) but in OpenSP package which has no common with it. I mentioned about I_KNOW_WHAT_I_AM_DOING=1 to not create additional questions about why I'm use it. However, as we calling emerge from terminal and using shell(most of all POSIX compliant), we can use both syntax, your and my and it will be correct. However, I tried your version, it doesn't work. 2014-04-22 19:23 GMT+03:00 Edward M : > On 4/22/2014 8:40 AM, Nikita Tropin wrote: > >> Hi, I'm trying to update Gentoo with >> I_KNOW_WHAT_I_AM_DOING=1 emerge --deep --update --newuse --with-bdeps=y >> @world >> > > Hello, > > I've seen that flag used before where the one is in quotation > marks, it may help: > I_KNOW_WHAT_I_AM_DOING="1" emerge --deep --update --newuse > --with-bdeps=y @world > > Best regards > ed > > -- > Running: Gentoo w/ Systemd > > > -- Regards, Nikita
