Bug 233843 – improvements (Gentoo specific) to distcc zeroconf support

• Status: CONFIRMED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Zhang Le (RETIRED) 2008-08-03 20:40:40 UTC]

distccd only registers one service subtype, e.g.
_i686-pc-linux-gnu--4.3.1._sub._distcc._tcp
if you don't have cross compiler, then this patch wouldn't do any good to you.

However, if your system has cross compilers, then you wish they would be discovered by other distcc client, then this patch will help you a lot.

This patch uses gcc-config, and hence "Gentoo specific".

sorry for delay.

I think that it is better way to use environment variables same as DISTCC_CMDLIST and DISTCC_CMDLIST_NUMWORDS in >=distcc-3.0.

--
local myprofile
for myprofile in $(gcc-config -l | awk '{print $2}'); do
  DISTCC_ZEROCONF="${DISTCC_ZEROCONF} $(gcc-config -S ${myprofile})"
done

Thank you for reminding me of DISTCC_CMDLIST.
I will take a look if I can come up with a better solution based on DISTCC_CMDLIST.
