#332: Cactus should not interpret environment variables as configuration options ---------------------+------------------------------------------------------ Reporter: hinder | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: Cactus | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: ---------------------+------------------------------------------------------
Comment (by eschnett):
One good way around this would be to rewrite the top-level Cactus makefile in Python. This top-level makefile does not use any real make facilities; it only parses the command and then calls the corresponding "real" makefile in the lib/make directory.
Rewriting this makefile should be straightforward. I began to do this some time ago; I attach the current state of my efforts.
