Cross-compiling distcc tends to require that CC be set to something besides "gcc" and not be ignored. A bug in the makefile for iproute2-2.4.7-20020116 makes it override CC to gcc. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set $CC to anything besides "gcc". 2. Emerge iproute2-2.4.7-20020116 and notice that it uses gcc and not the contents of $CC Actual Results: iproute2 used gcc throughout to build Expected Results: iproute2 should use the contents of $CC for the C compiler. lynx root # emerge info Portage 2.0.50-r8 (default-ppc-2004.1, gcc-3.3.3, glibc-2.3.3.20040420-r0, 2.6.5-gentoo-r1) =============================================================== == System uname: 2.6.5-gentoo-r1 ppc 740/750 Gentoo Base System version 1.4.16 distcc 2.13 powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [enabled] Autoconf: sys-devel/autoconf-2.58-r1 Automake: sys-devel/automake-1.8.3 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="ppc" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-O2 -mcpu=750 -pipe -fsigned-char -mpowerpc-gfxopt" CHOST="powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu" COMPILER="gcc3" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/rules /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/ config /usr/lib/mozilla/defaults/pref /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -mcpu=750 -pipe -fsigned-char -mpowerpc-gfxopt" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="ccache distcc" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://gentoo.oregonstate.edu http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/ gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j7" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage/rutledad/" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X acl alsa berkdb caps cups directfb dvd esd fbcon foomaticdb gatos gdbm gif gnome gnome- libs gpm gtk gtk2 imap imlib jpeg kde krb4 ldap libwww mitshm motif mozilla nls offensive oggvorbis opengl oss pam perl png ppc python qt readline samba sasl sdl slang slp socks5 ssl tcltk tcpd truetype xv"
Created attachment 34002 [details] Proposed patch to fix bug Add these lines within src_unpack() { } in iproute2-2.4.7-20020116.ebuild
fixed by running make with 'CC="$(gcc-getCC)"'
This append again with iproute2-2.6.22.20070710 even if make is called with CC="$(tc-getCC)"
