Part of this is pre-existing, but if you just re-arrange these variable decls you can do this instead: PYTHON_PACKAGE=python2 if test "$jobname" = linux-gcc then PYTHON_PACKAGE=python3 fi MAKEFLAGS="$MAKEFLAGS PYTHON_PATH=/usr/bin/${PYTHON_PACKAGE}" Even if you don't factor out the "else" like that (which I think would be OK to do while-we'er-at-it) this should be changed so that the "PYTHON_PACKAGE" comes before "MAKEFLAGS" in the two if/else branches here, so we can then use the variable.
