-make.conf
-*********
-
-Available make.conf settings for portage
-
-SYNOPSIS
-========
-
-/etc/make.conf
-
-DESCRIPTION
-===========
-
-This file contains various variables that are used by Portage.
-Portage will check the currently-defined environment variables
-first for any settings. If no environment settings are found,
-Portage then checks /etc/make.conf. If no setting is found
-in /etc/make.conf, Portage checks the profile's default setting
-from /etc/make.profile/make.defaults. If no setting is found there,
-it finally checks make.globals.
-Please note that all user
-settings should be made in the environment or in /etc/make.conf,
-which is intended to be customized by the user.
-
-VARIABLES
-=========
-
-ACCEPT_KEYWORDS
----------------
-
-:suggest: |accept_keywords|
-:valdesc: space delimited list of KEYWORDS
-
-Enable testing of ebuilds that have not yet been deemed 'stable'. Users
-of the 'x86' architecture would set this to '~x86' while ppc users would
-set this to '~ppc'. This is an incremental variable.
-
-CCACHE_DIR
-----------
-
-:suggest: ${PORTAGE_TMPDIR}/ccache
-:valdesc: path
-
-Defines the location of the ccache working directory. See the ccache(1) man

-('2G'). Sizes are specified with 'G', 'M', or 'K'.
-
-CFLAGS
-------
-
-:suggest: |cflags|
-:valdesc: valid gcc flags, see gcc manual
-
-Use these variables to set the desired optimization/CPU instruction settings
-for applications that you compile. Nearly all ebuild files will take advantage
-of your custom settings, resulting in a Gentoo Linux that is fully customized
-to your specifications. Please use sane settings as some packages will fail to
-compile/run if the optimizations are too extreme.
-
-CXXFLAGS
---------
-
-:suggest: ${CFLAGS}
-:valdesc: valid gcc flags, see gcc manual
-
-`CFLAGS`_
-

---------------
-
-:default: /etc
-:valdesc: space delimited list of files and/or directories
-
-All files and/or directories that are defined here will have "config file
-protection" enabled for them (unless overridden by _`CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK`).
-
-CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK
--------------------
-
-:default: /etc/env.d
-:valdesc: space delimited list of files and/or directories

-important informational messages. This variable is unset by default.
-
-FEATURES
---------
-
-:default: sandbox distlocks metadata-transfer
-:suggest: userpriv usersandbox
-:valdesc: space separated list of feature flags
-
-Various settings affecting portage behavior. Don't disable the defaults without
-a good reason. This is an incremental variable. It can take a combination of the
-following flags:
-
-_`assume-digests`
- When commiting work to cvs with repoman(1), assume that all existing SRC_URI
- digests are correct. This feature also affects digest generation via
- ebuild(1) and emerge(1) (emerge generates digests only when the digest
- feature is enabled).
-
-_`buildpkg`
- Binary packages will be created for all packages that are merged.
-
-_`buildsyspkg`
- Build binary packages for just packages in the system set.
-
-_`ccache`
- Enable portage support for the ccache package. If ${CCACHE_DIR} is not set
- in the users environment, then portage will default to ${PORTAGE_TMPDIR}/ccache
- (with userpriv) and to /root/.ccache otherwise.
-
-_`collision-protect`
- A QA-feature to ensure that a package doesn't overwrite files it doesn't own.
- The `COLLISION_IGNORE`_ variable can be used to selectively disable this feature.
-
-_`digest`
- Autogenerate digests for packages when running the emerge(1) command. If
- the `assume-digests`_ feature is also enabled then existing SRC_URI digests
- will be reused whenever they are available.
-
-_`distcc`
- Enable portage support for the distcc package.
-
-_`distlocks`
- Portage uses lockfiles to ensure competing instances don't clobber
- each other's files. This feature is enabled by default but may cause
- heartache on less intelligent remote filesystems like NFSv2 and some
- strangely configured Samba server (oplocks off, NFS re\-export). A tool
- /usr/lib/portage/bin/clean_locks exists to help handle lock issues
- when a problem arises (normally due to a crash or disconnect).
-
-_`fixpackages`
- Updates dependencies in binary packages to match the current tree, for
- example after package moves. This can take a ot of time if you have many
- binary packages in `PKGDIR`_.
-
-_`getbinpkg`
- Force emerges to always try to fetch files from the `PORTAGE_BINHOST`_.
-
-_`installsources`
- Install source code into /usr/src/debug/${CATEGORY}/${PF} (also see
- `splitdebug`_). This feature works only if debugedit is installed.
-
-_`keeptemp`
- Do not delete the temporary ebuild directory ${T} after the merge process.
-
-_`keepwork`
- Do not delete the build directory ${WORKDIR} after the merge process. This
- may occupy a lot of diskspace.
-
-_`metadata-transfer`
- Automatically perform a metadata transfer when emerge --sync is run.
-
-_`mirror`
- This will cause `FETCHCOMMAND`_ to always be run even if the file already
- exists in `DISTDIR`_.
-
-_`noauto`
- When utilizing ebuild(1), only run the requested function.
-
-_`noclean`
- Do no delete the source and temporary files after the merge process.
-
-_`nodoc`
- Do not install documentation files in /usr/share/doc.
-
-_`noinfo`
- Do not install info pages.
-
-_`noman`
- Do not install manpages.
-
-_`nostrip`
- Prevents the stripping of binaries that are merged to the live filesystem.
-
-_`notitles`
- Disables xterm titlebar updates (which contains status info).
-
-_`parallel-fetch`
- Fetch in the background while compiling.
-
-_`sandbox`
- Use sys-apps/sandbox when building packages to protect the live filesystem.
-
-_`sfperms`
- Stands for Smart Filesystem Permissions. Before merging packages to the
- live filesystem, automatically search for and set permissions on setuid
- and setgid files. Files that are setuid have the group and other read
- bits removed while files that are setgid have the other read bit removed.
- See also `suidctl`_ below.
-
-_`sign`
- When commiting work to cvs with repoman(1), sign the Manifest with
- a GPG key. Read about the `PORTAGE_GPG_KEY`_ variable.
-
-_`splitdebug`
- Prior to stripping ELF etdyn and etexec files, the debugging info is
- stored for later use by debuggers. This feature is disabled by
- `nostrip`_. For installation of source code, see `installsources`_.
-
-_`strict`
- Have portage react strongly to conditions that have the potential to be
- dangerous (like missing or incorrect Manifests entries).
-
-_`stricter`
- Have portage react strongly to conditions that may conflict with system
- security provisions (for example textrels, executable stack). Read about
- the `QA_STRICT`_ variables below.
-
-_`suidctl`
- Before merging packages to the live filesystem, automatically strip setuid
- bits from any file that is not listed in /etc/portage/suidctl.conf.
-
-_`test`
- Run package-specific tests during each merge to help make sure
- the package compiled properly. See *test* in ebuild(1)
- and *src_test()* in ebuild(5).
-
-_`userfetch`
- When portage is run as root, drop privileges to portage:portage during the
- fetching of package sources.
-
-_`userpriv`
- Allow portage to drop root privileges and compile packages as
- portage:portage without `sandbox`_ (unless `usersandbox`_ is also used).
-
-_`usersandbox`
- Enable the sandbox in the compile phase, when running without root privs
- (`userpriv`_).
-

-------------
-
-:valdesc: space delimited list of file names
-
-Use this variable if you want to selectively prevent certain files from being

-actual files. Useful if you wish to filter out files like HACKING.gz and
-TODO.gz.
-
-MAKEOPTS
---------
-
-:suggest: -j2
-:valdesc: make options
-
-Use this variable if you want to use parallel make. For example, if you
-have a dual-processor system, set this variable to "-j2" or "-j3" for
-enhanced build performance with many packages. Suggested settings are
-between CPUs+1 and 2*CPUs+1. For more information, see make(1).

-serving the tbz2's for your system. This is only used when running with
-the get binary pkg options are given to emerge. Review emerge(1)
-for more information. Note that it should point to the 'All' directory on
-the host that creates the binary packages and not to the root of the `PKGDIR`_.
-
-PORTAGE_ELOG_CLASSES
---------------------
-
-:default: log warn error
-:valdesc: space separated list of logging levels
-

-PORTAGE_ELOG_SYSTEM
--------------------
-
-:suggest: save mail
-:valdesc: space separated list of elog handlers
-
-Selects which elog message handlers are invoked by portage to deliver messages
-captured by elog. If no handler is specified logging is effectively disabled.
-Default handlers (other packages may contain additional handlers) are:

-
-Both variables have to be quoted with single quotes
-
-PORTAGE_ELOG_MAILURI
---------------------
-
-:default: root
-:suggest: user@some.domain mail.some.domain
-
-This variable holds all important settings for the mail module. In most cases
-listing the recipient address andthe receiving mailserver should be sufficient,

-as `FETCHCOMMAND`_.
-
-.. _QA_STRICT:
-
-QA_STRICT_EXECSTACK
--------------------
-
-:suggest: set

-
-Use this variable to specify the target root filesystem to be used for merging
-packages or ebuilds. All RDEPEND and PDEPEND will be installed
-into ROOT while all DEPEND will be still be installed into /.
-Typically, you should set this setting in the environment rather than in
-/etc/make.conf itself. It's commonly used for creating new build
-images. Make sure you use an absolute path.
-
-RPMDIR
-------
-
-:default: |portdir|/rpm

-:valdesc: colon separated list of portage config layers
-
-Determines the precedence of layers in the incremental stacking of the USE
-variable. Precedence decreases from left to right such that env overrides
-pkg, pkg overrides conf, and so forth. *Don't change this unless you know what
-you're doing!* Available layers are:
-
-env
- USE from the current USE environment variable if it exists
-
-pkg
- Per-package USE from /etc/portage/package.use (see portage(5))
