<pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">So, maybe I'm doing this wrong, but...
1) Created .asterisk.makeopts in my home directory
2) Ran make distclean
3) Ran ./configure && make
Alas, menuselect was run with its 'standard' set of information, creating a new menuselect.makeopts and ignoring the .asterisk.makeopts in my home directory.
Maybe I'm missing how this should work..?</pre>

<pre style="margin: 0; padding: 0; white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">The Makefile claims that you can set default menuselect options by creating ~/.asterisk.makeopts or /etc/asterisk.makeopts, but they are never read. The rule for menuselect.makeopts is only allowed to run if the active target is 'menuselect', but the menuselect target doesn't depend on menuselect.makeopts. A dot (wildcard character) was added so the rule will be active for the targets that cause it to run: nmenuselect, cmenuselect, and gmenuselect.
When I first enabled this it caused ~/.asterisk.makeopts to overwrite ./menuselect.makeopts every time I ran 'make menuselect', so I modified the Makefile to only consider the file in $HOME and /etc when ./menuselect.makeopts doesn't exist.
Thoughts:
* Having two files ($HOME and /etc) at the same time really doesn't make sense to me, seems like it would be better to use only the "most local" file.
* As far as I can tell this has never worked in any currently supported version. I see this as a "new for the second time feature", not a bug fix. I'm thinking trunk only. If anyone disagrees let me know.</pre>
