This is a diff against ebuild.sh in portage 2.0.13, it adds the "distcc" option, and also fixes how ccache is called. 122a123,135 > #This way the default compiler is gcc, then if distcc is available it's prepended, and the same with ccache > > export CC="gcc" > > if [ "${FEATURES/-distcc/}" = "${FEATURES}" -a "${FEATURES/distcc/}" ! = "${FEATURES}" -a -f /usr/bin/distcc ] > then > export CC="distcc ${CC}" > #these should be set in make.conf > export DISTCC_HOSTS > export DISTCC_VERBOSE > export DISTCC_LOG > fi > 126c139,140 < export PATH="/usr/bin/ccache:${PATH}" --- > #export PATH="/usr/bin/ccache:${PATH}" > export CC="/usr/bin/ccache/ccache ${CC}"
well, this will only support ccache/distcc if the ebuild happens to recognize the CC variable. Right now, ccache is enabled for pretty much everything, which seems like a nicer approach.
Which ebuilds don't support the CC variable? if any ebuild doesn't it should be considered completely broken, especially since the only thing that should support it is make, and make will always use CC if it exists. I have compiled an entire system with this patch, and for the most part it works great, the exceptions are probably ebuild probablems that i may look at later.
