Why wouldn't it work? I'm working around an infelicity in crossdev-enabled= =20 packages, where the USE flag for supporting multiple ABIs for the target=20 is masked by the profile for the build host, which is actually totally=20 irrelevant to the --enable-multilib configure option to (e.g.) newlib. Is there some way to specify a totally different profile (per ARCH) for=20 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= =20 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. =09-Daniel *This .sig left intentionally blank* --1547844168-1393875749-1169598297=:20138-- -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
