Description needle 2021-12-04 18:26:37 UTC

The current ebuild description of sys-devel/icecream is like following:

Description:         Distributed compiling of C(++) code across several machines; based on distcc

Apparently the distcc part in the description not accurate. I had a small discussion about this in #gentoo-chat. (attached)

Suggestion to change the package description to:


Distributed compiler with a central scheduler to share build load



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run eix sys-devel/icecream
2. Read the Description
3.

    sys-devel/icecream: update EAPI 7 -> 8, post-review fixes
    
    - Use EAPI 8
    - Use conventional double quotes everywhere
    - Unconditionally install systemd units (see small files policy)
    - Adapt pkg_* for EAPI 7+ (${ROOT} suffix)
    - Style changes (place eclass variables before inherit in general, whitespace)
    - Drop unnecessary econf arg (--enable-fast-install)
    - Add missing dependencies (libarchive, lzo)
