From 23b2d39e7dd8de9bc78b4ad7fe35e820b27f9eba Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Zac Medico Date: Tue, 6 Oct 2009 06:57:06 +0000 Subject: Add a new --accept-properties option so that users can temporarily override ACCEPT_PROPERTIES on the commandline, without relying on emerge's legacy behavior of allowing variables to leak in from the calling environment. A typical usage example for this option would be to use --accept-properties=-interactive to temporarily mask interactive packages. With default configuration, this would result in an effective ACCEPT_PROPERTIES value of "* -interactive". svn path=/main/trunk/; revision=14501 --- man/make.conf.5 | 4 +++- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'man/make.conf.5') diff --git a/man/make.conf.5 b/man/make.conf.5 index 73861d859..c0b48e924 100644 --- a/man/make.conf.5 +++ b/man/make.conf.5 @@ -43,7 +43,9 @@ Defaults to the value of * -@EULA. .TP \fBACCEPT_PROPERTIES\fR = \fI[space delimited list of properties]\fR This variable is used to mask packages based on PROPERTIES restrictions. -See \fBebuild\fR(5) for more information about PROPERTIES. +This varable can be temporarily overridden using the the +\fB\-\-accept\-properties\fR option of \fBemerge\fR(1). +See \fBebuild\fR(5) for more information about PROPERTIES. .br Defaults to the value of *. .TP -- cgit v1.2.3-1-g7c22
