Please keyword sys-devel/icecream-0.7.14 ~sparc. Icecream is a replacement for distcc(based on distcc) but it has some nice new features compared to distcc, eg: it takes the load of the nodes into account when distributing jobs, not just simple round-robin... Compiles fine, no test failures, no collisions and works really nice using my two sparc boxes. # emerge --info Portage 2.1.4.4 (default-linux/sparc/sparc64/2007.0, gcc-4.1.2, glibc-2.6.1-r0, 2.6.24-gentoo-r3 sparc64) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.24-gentoo-r3 sparc64 sun4u Timestamp of tree: Thu, 27 Mar 2008 17:30:01 +0000 ccache version 2.4 [disabled] app-shells/bash: 3.2_p17-r1 dev-lang/python: 2.4.4-r9 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r6 dev-util/ccache: 2.4-r7 sys-apps/baselayout: 1.12.11.1 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.18.1-r2 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.61-r1 sys-devel/automake: 1.5, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2, 1.10 sys-devel/binutils: 2.18-r1 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.0-r4 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.26 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.23-r3 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="sparc" CBUILD="sparc-unknown-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-mcpu=ultrasparc3 -mvis -Wa,-Av8plusa -O2 -pipe -ggdb" CHOST="sparc-unknown-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/env.d /etc/fonts/fonts.conf /etc/gconf /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/terminfo /etc/udev/rules.d" CXXFLAGS="-mcpu=ultrasparc3 -mvis -Wa,-Av8plusa -O2 -pipe -ggdb" DISTDIR="/tmp/distfiles" FEATURES="collision-protect distlocks installsources metadata-transfer parallel-fetch sandbox splitdebug strict test userfetch userpriv usersandbox" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://distfiles.gentoo.org http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/gentoo" LANG="de_DE.UTF-8" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1" LINGUAS="en de" MAKEOPTS="-j6" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/portage/local/layman/sunrise /usr/portage/local/layman/gnash-cvs /usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="64bit 7zip X a52 aac aalib ace agg alsa artworkextra audacious blender-game bluetooth bzip2 c++ caps ccache clock-screen cups curl custom-cflags cvs cxx dbus devhelp dga disk-partition divx dri dts dv dvd dvdread eds encode evo exif fastcgi fat festival ffmpeg flac ftp fuse gd gif gimp gimpprint glade gmedia gnome gnome-print gnomecanvas gpm grammar gtk hal hpn ieee1394 imap ithreads javascript jpeg jpeg2k key-screen libsexy lyrics lzo mad mbrola memcache midi mikmod mjpeg mouse mp2 mp3 mpeg mpeg2 mplayer musepack musicbrainz nautilus ncurses network network-cron networking nls nptl nptlonly nsplugin offensive ogg openal opengl opera pam parallel pcre pdf png pnm ppds qt3support quicktime raw realmedia regex ruby samba sasl sdl sdl-image search-screen slang smartcard smp sms sound soundex source sourceview sparc speex spell sqlite3 ssl subversion svg symlink taglib tagwriting theora threads tiff timidity truetype tta unicode usb userlocales utils vcd vidix vim vim-syntax vim-with-x vorbis wma wmf wmp x264 xanim xcb xfce xine xinerama xorg xulrunner xv xvid zlib" ALSA_CARDS="CS4231" ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw copy dshare dsnoop extplug file hooks ladspa lfloat linear meter mulaw multi null rate route share shm" ELIBC="glibc" INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse" KERNEL="linux" LINGUAS="en de" USERLAND="GNU" VIDEO_CARDS="mach64 fbdev mga" Unset: CPPFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LC_ALL, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS
