AFAIK, that is not correct. The options you pass to the compiler are used for optimizing the code that is compiled. This does not affect the optimization of the binaries that are built down the line. For example, if you build glibc with -Os and then build the package coreutils with -O2, the coreutils executables will be built with -O2, not -Os In addition to compiler optimization, one can also use linker optimization (LDFLAGS=-0n). -- Tushar Teredesai mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/~tushar/ -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
