Package: ccache Version: 4.7.4-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
I've spent some time grappling with ccache 4.7 on Debian Bookworm, as well as Alpine and Fedora, where I encountered the same issues [1]. As a result, I'm wondering if you would consider pushing ccache 4.8 into Bookworm. The authors of ccache have mentioned that this version includes a rewrite that addresses serious issues, such as deadlocks [2]. As a conservative approach, I would suggest setting the inode_cache option to false by default. Alternatively, we could force the environment variable CCACHE_NOINODECACHE=1, which has helped with our CI ccache on Bookworm. Thank you for your work!
