LOL mike, i'm fighting with this thing at the very moment. there's a patch i received that has whitespace issues and i'd like to specify custom EPATCH_OPTS. i applied the patch to my eclass overlay, and einfo is showing that the new eclass is used. $ EPATCH_OPTS="--ignore-whitespace" emerge -va pf-sources isn't achieved though. do you mean "cmdline" as in only within ebuild? what's the optimal way here? i was desperately searching for PATCHCOMMAND in "man make.conf".
