Hi Alex,
dpkg will tell you which package of cache you installed with your OS
software installation tool. configure ; make ; make install is
independent of that tool. You can check which version is being picked
up in your PATH like so...
$ ccache --version
You can see where ccache is in your path like so...
$ which ccache
What you'll need to do in uninstalled ccache with dpkg, then do make
install again. ccache --version should be the latest then. Keep in
mind that you can have bother versions installed. One installed in
/usr, the other installed in /usr/local. make install typically puts
things in /usr/local unless you give configure a --prefix=/usr. You can
set the PATH env var to pick up /usr/local/bin before /usr/bin. This
would also work (but dpkg will only report whatever version it
installed). Check ccache --version after doing this...
$ export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
Good luck.
Thanks,
Reuben

Hi list, My name is Alex.
I am a complete newbie when it comes to ccache, in fact although I
have had it installed for some time, I actually didn't realise it had
to be configured.
I also found out I am not running the latest version.
So my question is this, how exactly do I upgrade from ccache 2.4
to ccache 3.0.1?
the repositories I have in my ubuntu distro are still listing ccache
2.4 as the latest version.
is there a repository that makes a precompiled binary of ccache 3.0.1
available?
I went to the ccache website, and downloaded the source.
I then extracted it, and input the following commands
configure
make
make install
However, after doing the make install when I entered the command
dpkg -l ccache
the version is still listed as 2.4
so what else do I need to do in order to upgrade my ccache?
Later, I will probably have questions about configuring it to work
with my compilers,
but for now if anyone could please help with upgrading and tell me
where I have gone wrong it would be very appreciated.
Many thanks,
Alex.
