I am writing a rule to compile the libsepol package that comes with plain Makefiles. I am trying to pass -Wno-error option through the <PKG>_MAKE_OPT variable to override the -Werror option specified in the package Makefile.
I have set
LIBSEPOL_CONF_TOOL := NO
and also
LIBSEPOL_MAKE_ENV := $(CROSS_ENV)
LIBSEPOL_MAKE_OPT := \
-Wno-error=shadow
The make still runs without the -Wno-error option during compilation.
In the Quickstart guide, it is noted that "in the rule file only the two variables FOO_MAKE_ENV and FOO_MAKE_OPT must be set, to forward the required settings to the package’s buildsystem."
What am I missing? Thanks in advance.
