are you setting up distcc using distcc-config?
what does the logfile say?
Nothing since distcc is not used by emerge but plain old gcc.
can i suggest you try setting PATH on the emerge command line and see what happens?
PATH="/usr/lib/distcc/bin;$PATH" emerge blah
make sure blah is a package that does not disable distcc by disabling parallel makes, I know for sure mc will use distcc so i often test with that (if you don't want mc you can ctrl-c it before it finishes compiling). I also know Xorg-x11 disables parallel makes. with other packages YMMV
This will for sure work but is definitely not what I intend. Simply "overriding" gcc by symlinking it to distcc is not what I want. I'd like to let emerge do this work for me. As I said, if i manually use distcc it works.
Also I doubt that a package can "disable" distcc if it does not use something advanced to check for the real gcc. If you just disable parallel make you wont automagically stop distcc from being used afair.
I'd like to know why emerge itself does not use distcc even though I tell it to by setting features to distcc.
kind regards Philip
