 |
|
I think it might be a good idea to have a category where people posted which USE flags (maybe cflags as well?) they have had success with while compiling various programs. For example, gaim usually has to have a certain flag to compile ( at least before) so people could search there for their program which is failing the emerge to find out if it's a problem with the flags.
Just an idea. |

The only program I have come across that doesnt compile with a standard set of USE flags, is vlc (VideoLAN Client) -- dvd player.
For some reason it doesnt like 3dfx and will balk on glide.o if 3dfx is part of your USE variable.
| Code: | | USE="-3dfx" emerge vlc |
Fixes the problem. |
