  Description     : distributed compiler like distcc

Hi,

could you please package Icecream for Debian. I already started with it
some time ago and it works for me, but I'm neither a Debian
maintainer/developer nor do I know if my work is correct.

You can find the source code here:

svn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/kdenonbeta/icecream

Icecream is better than distcc because:
- the compiler is distributed by Icecream (imagine a kind of Knoppix
  live CD running Icecream, only boot the machine and your compile farm
  is ready)
- Icecream uses a scheduler:
  o there is no need to configure which hosts exists
  o if a host is already busy it doesn't accept any new jobs
  o faster hosts are prefered
- and all the things I can't remember


Cheers,
André
