 |
|
| I'm just curious. Are CFLAGS only specific to Gentoo, or are they used in other distributions? If they are used in others, which ones, if not all? How do you use them in other distributions? |

| Actually, they are used by GCC, so they should work with any distro when you compile something. |

| Do you know where you'd specify the CFLAG optins? |

As far as I know only Gentoo has make.conf
As far as cflags on other Distro's it's just a case of setting up environment variables CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS which could be e.g in /etc/profile or wherever you choose ! |

| Comparing FreeBSD and Gentoo is walking on dangerous grounds FreeBSD is an OS whereas Gentoo is just a way of installing software and using said software mainly. |

Last time I checked, it's also possible to set CFLAGS(and CXXFLAGS) when running make, such as: | Code: | | make CFLAGS="-march=pentium3" |

Right. Gentoo Linux is the OS. Gentoo is just the stuff on top of Linux, but it all combines to make an OS. (Don't whine 'bout GNU, I'll ignore it.)

Even FreeBSD has tools from external projects. That is unless the developers completely recoded the WMs and DEs along with the X implementation, Apache2, shells, and well... you get the idea.
EDIT: Sorry kids, but I was tired.

Uhm... X isn't GNU, apache isn't GNU, there are non-GNU shells, ... |

ah, the classic (FreeBSD vs. Linux) argument, lovely  Open source is open source, right? Ok, maybe not. I must admit, I do lean one way over the other.... Thanks for the replies everyone. |

I think you mean "free software", not "open source"
/ don't really care either way, just trolling |
