Description Esteve Varela Colominas 2020-03-12 16:19:43 UTC
The message displayed by the src_install() function of this package, states the following:

    Portage will automatically take advantage of ccache with no additional steps.

This would make one think that FEATURES=ccache is enabled by default and ccache will be used by the next emerge. This, however, isn't the case.
I think this message should be reworded to make that clear.

    dev-util/ccache: drop misleading install message
    
    Even being relatively long readme.doc has a few limitations:
    - non-standard ccache usage requires a bit more fiddling than readme suggests
    - standard ccache usage is not covered fully (not make.conf tweaks, no caveats)
    
    Let's leave all the details to https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Ccache page.
