Description Zach Welch (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-04-27 17:20:37 UTC
The ebuild uses gcc explicitly instead of ${CC:-gcc}.  While those are trivial
fixes, the missingos python module's setup script does not respect the CC env
var, which seems to be a bug with python's distutils modules (or I'm missing
something really obvious).

To reproduce, `CC=i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc emerge sys-apps/portage` and notice that
all compiles still take place with gcc.  To fix the ebuild, change references to
gcc as suggested above.  The python setup fix eludes me; however, you'll be able
to tell when you finally get it right from the build output.  You don't even
need to use distcc to test and fix this.

seems to be fixed.
