Hi all,

I've moved a couple of machines from openrc to systemd.

I have discovered this odd problem. On openrc, distcc was quiet during building packages. It would obey environment variable set in /etc/env.d:

DISTCC_DIR=/var/distcc
DISTCC_ENABLE_DISCREPANCY_EMAIL=
DISTCC_FALLBACK=1
DISTCC_SAVE_TEMPS=0
DISTCC_SSH=
DISTCC_TCP_CORK=
DISTCC_VERBOSE=0

This currently shows up in the enviroment (checked with `set`.)

Just an update. I have figured out it isn't systemd causing this issue.

I did upgrade several machines.

1. Upgraded the system profile.
2. Converted from split-usr to merged-usr.
3. Converted to systemd.

It turns out step 2 caused the problem. I don't know why, but it does - I tested this by converting an openrc machine that I hadn't upgraded yet from split-usr to merged-usr and the problem presented itself (no system on that machine yet.)

I did notice the machine I completely reinstalled from scratch (using systemd from the start) did not show signs of this issue.

I reinstalled the other distcc host using systemd from the start, installed and configured distcc and it all works as expected.

Now to reinstall the slower Celeron devices... come to think of it, I initially installed them in 2011. They haven't ever been reinstalled. Just repurposed.
