Especially in the +configure phase, adding <code class="literal">-Werror</code> leads to wrong +decisions. The GNU configure scripts feed many small test programs to the +C compiler to see whether certain headers are available, functions are +defined in a library and programs can be run. In many cases these +programs would not survive a strict compiler run with <code class="literal">-Wall +-Wextra -Werror</code>.</p> +<p>The pkgsrc infrastructure is flexible enough to support compiler +options being added between the <code class="literal">configure</code> and +<code class="literal">build</code> phases. It's a little more complicated than the +other examples in this section but still easy enough.</p> +<p>The basic idea is to use the pkgsrc compiler wrapper to inject the +desired compiler options. The compiler wrapper's original task is to hide +unwanted directories of include files and to normalize compiler options. +It does this by wrapping the compiler command and rewriting the command +line. To see this in action, run <span class="command"><strong>bmake patch</strong></span> in a +package directory and examine the +<code class="filename">work/.cwrappers/config</code> directory. It contains +individual configurations for the C compiler and the related tools. The +plan is to find a hook between the configure and build phases, and to +modify these configuration files at that point.</p> +<p>To find this hook, have a look at +<code class="filename">mk/build/build.mk</code>, which contains among others the +<code class="literal">pre-build-checks-hook</code>.

Force compiler options only in the build phase + +When adding custom compiler flags via CFLAGS, these apply to all phases of the +package build process. Especially in the configure phase, adding -Werror leads +to wrong decisions.
