Package: distcc Version: 3.1-4 Severity: normal Tags: patch Hello,
I tried to compile virtualbox-ose with distcc, but was stopped by strange errors like "gcc: argument to '-o' missing." It seems to be exatly the same problem as described in this Gentoo bug: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=351979 I was able to debug it and found that the problem was in the dcc_expand_preprocessor_options function, which incorrectly handled several consecutive -Wp,... options. The problem was that even though it increased the number of arguments, it didn't increase argc, which could later be used as number of all arguments by the same code, hence deleting some of the last arguments. The patch fixing this bug is in the attachment. Please, push it upstream so that even Gentooists can merrily compile with distcc.
