Hi again, how about : Some {{{make}}} variables are reserved to the user, and the [http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/manual/automake/User-Variables.html#User-Variables Automake manual] and the [http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/standards.html#Command-Variables GNU coding standards] advise to never use them for switches that are required for proper compilation of the package. When a Debian binary package is built, environment variables such as {{{CFLAGS}}} and {{{CXXFLAGS}}} are set by {{{dpkg-buildpackage}}} and may override the corresponding variables in the {{{Makefile}}}. We therefore strongly recommend to follow the above advice. Have a nice day, -- Charles -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
