[gentoo-dev] [RFC] enable verbose build whenever it's possible

November 05th, 2011 - 04:00 am ET by Kacper Kowalik | Report spam
This is an OpenPGP/MIME signed message (RFC 2440 and 3156)

Hi,
I'd like to ask that we enable verbose building by default. I have
cmake-utils.eclass in mind, because it's dead easy there, but there's a
lot of packages that support things like "make V=1" or "make VERBOSE=1" too.

I've seen too many bugs reports today that gave me cute, colorful
build.logs and almost no information about underlaying bug...
Cheers,
Kacper

+1

glibc breaks with `make V=1` but I think I saw a fix somewhere recently.


fonts, gcc-porting, it makes no sense how it makes no sense
toolchain, wxwidgets but i'll take it free anytime
