Well I recompiled again using "distcc" awesome application thanks for the tip. The compiling time went from 36 hours or so to less than 8, I'm not really sure how long because I went to bed. Installation of distcc wasn't as straight forward as it let on it was missing some points, it was close but then anything that I've found with Linux has been close, there are assumptions made...  I'm sure that will get a few reply's sorry if it offends anyone I realize that is a very broad statement and should be loosley interpreted..

Back to the problem I'm having, compiling completed fine this time without the "Nothing to be done for Install" message. I think my problem was not exporting qt before compiling. Anyway, there is no application mythtv-setup, it doesn't exist? I have no idea why?

I could use some help and or guidance... Thanks.

This might help for anyone in the future trying to install distcc.... If your compiling on an XBOX you NEED IT!

Download it from http://distcc.samba.org (wget http://.../distcc-2.18.3.tar.gz) Untar the source code on your hard disk (tar xvfz distcc-2.18.3.tar.gz)

Compile and install distcc by typing in a shell as root:

$ ./configure
$ make
$ make install

Once installed on each computer, start the daemon on each computer by typing as root in a shell:

$ distccd --daemon --allow 192.168.1.100  192.168.1.101
(add the IP for each computer allowed to connect to it)

On the computer that has the source code for the software you are planning to compile, type the following:

$ export DISTCC_HOSTS='localhost computer1 computer2'
(if you rebooted you must run this again)

Replace computer1, computer2, etc., with the names of the computers on your network running distcc or the IP's.

Now when you compile the program, add '-j

$ make -j6 CC=distcc
