Description Ryan Lackey 2004-04-19 01:00:37 UTC

/etc/make.conf is case sensitive for booleans? 

MAKE_IDEA=yes overrode /etc/defaults/make.conf MAKE_IDEA=YES and
didn't make idea; it was like putting anything but MAKE_IDEA=YES is treated as MAKE_IDEA=NO.

It really shouldn't be case sensitive like that, since most stuff in /etc/rc.conf treats YES=Yes=yes NO=No=no

Fix: 

whatever parses make.conf
How-To-Repeat: on any recent release, or current, try making idea with MAKE_IDEA=yes in /etc/make.conf; you get no IDEA.
