The above will create the right /mumble hierarchy, and will pull the libraries from the build rather than the local system.

You’re asking for some serious split-brain action. chroot builds are likely your best option. There’s no easy way to force this, although you might get some milage out of WMAKEENV options, but I think we bake most of the where to look for things options into the binaries. One crazy option would be to set CC=“cc —sysroot /mumble” but I’m sure there be dragons there…

Good luck with this crazy, never have we supported it very well, option :)
