I'm willing to use distcc here to run the upgrade, it works well. Except that I use cross-compilers (our most powerful machine is a PPC, and I'm running an i686). All my own builds work perfectly well, but I fail to have macport understand that it should stop using unqualified names such as gcc-4.0, but should rather use i686- apple-darwin9-gcc-4.0.1.

I have tried to add configure.cc info to my macports.conf

[EMAIL PROTECTED] $ tail /opt/local/etc/macports/macports.conf # while processing ports
# extra_env                     KEEP_THIS THIS_TOO

# Akim changes below.
configure.cc   /usr/bin/i686-apple-darwin9-gcc-4.0.1
configure.cxx  /usr/bin/i686-apple-darwin9-g++-4.0.1
configuredistcc yes
buildnicevalue 10
buildmakejobs 8


but it does not seem to work as I expected. Can someone tell me how I am supposed to make this work?

Hi.

configure.cc is a Portfile command; it doesn't do anything in macports.conf.

I was not familiar with distcc. I just looked it up (www.distcc.org) and it sounds interesting. I'm not sure how to best use it with MacPorts. MacPorts always defaults to using e.g. /usr/bin/gcc-4.0 to compile on Tiger and Leopard. Maybe distcc has a way to translate that?
