Many of the issues experienced with options like cmake-options, cxxflags, etc. are because kdesrc-build uses those options for all build systems, not just the "KDE4" one. This makes sense historically, when there was only one build system except for qt-copy (which was always special-cased), but now that there are many other build systems (Qt4, KDE, CMake's bootstrap, autoconf...) it would probably make more sense to be able to specify build-system options for each build system. E.g. bug 331654 would be less of a problem if cmake-bootstrap would simply ignore the 'global' build system options. The question would be what the best way to parse this would be.
Git commit 9fb3fb04d170478c922c5d85bb996f8f4b7ed82c by Michael Pyne. Committed on 30/03/2014 at 03:39. Pushed by mpyne into branch 'master'. build-systems: Mask default options for non-default build systems. This is a first-step hack to have non-default build systems ignore global options which are related to the build system in use (e.g. compile or make flags, install/uninstall options, etc.). This should fix bug 331654 (now that I understand it better) and improve the situation for bug 332789 (which would be the long-term fix when implemented).
