NetBSD_3.0_RC5 kernel, mid-october netbsd-3 branch userland.
Since I've got a few extra hosts available across a fairly fast network,
I was kinda hoping to use distcc to help with pkgsrc compiles. However,
when I set
PKGSRC_COMPILER="distcc gcc"
I get messages like:
===> No acceptable compiler found for nvi-m17n-1.79.20040401.
It looks to me as if somehow the stuff around line 108 of
pkgsrc/mk/compiler.mk isn't identifying the "gcc" in my PKGSRC_COMPILER
as matching the "gcc" in _ACCEPTABLE_COMPILERS (which is
"_ACCEPTABLE_COMPILERS=ccc gcc icc ido mipspro mipspro-ucode sunpro xlc"
according to a debugging note I added to the error message).
Is there any way to get a trace of just what that loop is doing? Or does
someone know what's going wrong?
