Bug 22792 – distcc error with pdflib

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED NEEDINFO

[Description Mark Miller 2003-06-13 18:12:29 UTC]

When trying to emerge PHP, apparently pdflib was a dependency, even with
removing the PDF use variable, so when it attempted to compile 4.0.3-r1 of
pdflib, it failed with this:

cd tiff && make
cd flate && make

[Comment 1 Seemant Kulleen (RETIRED) 2003-06-14 15:06:34 UTC]

does it succeed with distcc turned off?

[Comment 2 Mark Miller 2003-06-14 15:27:55 UTC]

Indeed it does. I just realized that when working on it. Distcc is not setup to anything but localhost though, so that seems rather strange. Apparently this is a bug specific with Distcc's compilation routines..

[Comment 3 Lisa Seelye (RETIRED) 2003-07-15 14:18:05 UTC]

Have you had occasion to try and recompile pdflib with a newer version of Distcc?

With 2.8-r2 I was able to compile pdflib...

[Comment 4 Lisa Seelye (RETIRED) 2003-08-02 06:04:42 UTC]

Reopen this if you still have problems.  I'll close this (as invalid) in a week or so.
