[pacman-dev] Remove CHOST from makepkg.conf
Are there any objections to removing CHOST from makepkg.conf? It's never seen by package Makefiles as it's not exported, and as a general rule it's a BAD idea to mess with CHOST. If there's no objections I'll do up a patch. Andrew

CHOST is a good idea to have if you are on a i686-pc-linux-gnu with a x86_64-pc-linux-gnu machine. It will go and build stuff with x86_64_pc-linux-gnu if not forced by using --target to most configures. Cheers, -Y

Well we should do one of two things: 1. Get rid of CHOST 2. Export it in makepkg with the rest of the variables Thoughts? -Dan

Do we still need this with that linux32 package? Can someone familiar with 64 bit let me know? -Dan

We should probably export this regardless, simply because we can't really predict future cross-compiles. Months down the line someone might want to start compiling everything for, say, some ARM proc, and the ability to bootstrap with makepkg might be helpful.
