After adding some USE flags (amongst which "odbc" and "mysql") I performed an emerge -DuN world. One of the packages that is selected for rebuild is koffice-1.5.1-r1 due to the mysql USE flag. However, after a while the build fails with the following output: /bin/sh ../libtool --silent --tag=CXX --mode=link i686-pc-linux-gnu-g++ -Wno-long-long -Wundef -ansi -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500 -D_BSD_SOURCE -Wcast-align -Wconversion -Wchar-subscripts -Wall -W -Wpointer-arith -DNDEBUG -DNO_DEBUG -O2 -O2 -march=athlon-xp -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -Wformat-security -Wmissing-format-attribute -Wno-non-virtual-dtor -fno-exceptions -fno-check-new -fno-common -DQT_CLEAN_NAMESPACE -DQT_NO_ASCII_CAST -DQT_NO_STL -DQT_NO_COMPAT -DQT_NO_TRANSLATION -DHAVE_KNEWSTUFF -o kspread.la -rpath /usr/lib/kde3 -L/usr/kde/3.5/lib -L/usr/qt/3/lib -L/usr/lib -L/usr/kde/3.5/lib -module -avoid-version -module -no-undefined -Wl,--no-undefined -Wl,--allow-shlib-undefined -R /usr/lib -R /usr/kde/3.5/lib -R /usr/qt/3/lib -R /usr/lib -R /usr/kde/3.5/lib kspread_dummy.lo libkdeinit_kspread.la /bin/sh ../libtool --silent --tag=CXX --mode=link i686-pc-linux-gnu-g++ -Wno-long-long -Wundef -ansi -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500 -D_BSD_SOURCE -Wcast-align -Wconversion -Wchar-subscripts -Wall -W -Wpointer-arith -DNDEBUG -DNO_DEBUG -O2 -O2 -march=athlon-xp -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -Wformat-security -Wmissing-format-attribute -Wno-non-virtual-dtor -fno-exceptions -fno-check-new -fno-common -DQT_CLEAN_NAMESPACE -DQT_NO_ASCII_CAST -DQT_NO_STL -DQT_NO_COMPAT -DQT_NO_TRANSLATION -DHAVE_KNEWSTUFF -o kspread -R /usr/lib -R /usr/kde/3.5/lib -R /usr/qt/3/lib -R /usr/lib -R /usr/kde/3.5/lib -no-undefined -L/usr/kde/3.5/lib -L/usr/qt/3/lib -L/usr/lib -L/usr/kde/3.5/lib kspread.la.o libkdeinit_kspread.la .libs/digest.o: file not recognized: File format not recognized collect2: ld returned 1 exit status distcc[23885] ERROR: compile (null) on localhost failed make[3]: *** [libkspreadcommon.la] Error 1 make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... make[3]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/koffice-1.5.1-r1/work/koffice-1.5.1/kspread' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/koffice-1.5.1-r1/work/koffice-1.5.1/kspread' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/koffice-1.5.1-r1/work/koffice-1.5.1' make: *** [all] Error 2 !!!

distcc/ccache issue. Try to clean the ccache and be sure not to run different compiler versions on the nodes. Not really a bug, more a setup issue.
