Gentoo make.conf help.

[SpeedCrazy]

Hey guys,

I took jjirmy up on the challenge to make a gentoo server and have got it done. But somehow i lost my server in vbox told me i had corrupt files. Sooo i try again, this time make.conf doesn't work properly. I get

PARSE ERROR: INVALID TOKEN 'CFLAGS' (not '=') /etc/make.conf: line 6 in /etc/make.conf 

This line (line 6) is

CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"

What is my problem?

Thanks

Google it, Gentoo has a large userbase that has covered every error.

I will, i was just hopping rather than me going to the answer it would come to me whilst i was asleep.

What are the contents of your CFLAGS variable?

[SpeedCrazy]

The whole make.conf

mak# These settings were set by the catalyst build script that automatically
# built this stage.
# Please consult /usr/share/portage/config/make.conf.example for a more
# detailed example.
CFLAGS="-O2 -march=native -pipe"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
# WARNING: Changing your CHOST is not something that should be done lightly.
# Please consult http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/change-chost.xml before changing.
CHOST="i486-pc-liux-gnu"
MAKEOPTS="-j3"

 

But i found the error, the mak at the beginning. It is auto created so i haven't a clue how it got there.
