Package: distcc
Version: 3.4+really3.4-9+b1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
The distcc service fails to start and error out with
"distccd[1242226]: ERROR: --nice: invalid numeric value"
My /etc/default/distcc is vanilla from debian.
The error is misleading because changing JOBS="" to JOBS="200" in
/etc/default/distcc fixes distcc service startup
I clue it was JOBS being empty that was at faul tbecause I tried running
the dameon on the cli with the service default argument values and got:
sudo /usr/bin/distccd --daemon --no-detach --allow "127.0.0.1" --listen
"127.0.0.1" --jobs "" --nice "10"
distccd[1110953] (distccd_parse_options) ERROR: --jobs argument must be between
1 and 200
Also NICE="10" in /etc/default/distcc was correct.
I don't know what would be a ccorrect default value for JOBS in
/etc/default/distcc though. I took 200 as I guessed taht if it was left
empty it was because the packager wanted no limit, so max limit seemed
the closest to his intent.
Cheers
Alban
