Hello! According to http://www.mail-archive.com/automake@gnu.org/msg12112.html , I should be able to override -g -O2 from the default c++ flags by passing CXXFLAGS to make. However, whatever I do this doesn't seem to work. I've got AM_CXXFLAGS set to contain the flags needed by the libraries my program uses. When I do for example make CXXFLAGS="-g" -g is appended to the cflags, instead of replacing -g -O2. This leads me to believe that automake adds -g -O2 to AM_CXXFLAGS. However, if I'd be to modify that one, I'd need to resupply all those flags the libraries need (and which are currently taken from pkg-config). Is there any more elegant and handy way of doing it?
