Hello Gentoo fellows :-) I have a mysterious problem with distcc and pump mode. Actually, distcc is working here, but together with pump mode I get strange error messages and can't find a solution for it.
For example I tried to install minitube on my notebook (the distcc client) by pump emerge minitube In the output of the make process for nearly every new file which should be processed the error message distcc[2815] ERROR: failed to connect to UNIX-DOMAIN /tmp/distcc-pump.boOiEs/socket: Permission denied distcc[2815] (dcc_build_somewhere) Warning: failed to get includes from include server, preprocessing locally occurs. So, if I get this right, pump mode is not used. Distcc itself is working, as my other PC is compiling something for the client, but I want to understand why pump mode is not used... /tmp/distcc-pump.boOiEs/socket is owned by root as you can see here: ls -l /tmp/distcc-pump.boOiEs/socket srwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 10. Okt 09:55 socket The file /etc/distcc/hosts on my client looks like uwe-notebook/8,cpp,lzo 127.0.0.1/1 where uwe-notebook is the distccd server. In both /etc/portage/make.conf on the client and the server side I have FEATURES="preserve-libs sandbox ccache distcc parallel-fetch" CCACHE_CPP2=1 CCACHE_DIR="/var/tmp/ccache" The CFLAGS are not set to native for both machines but to nocona on the client and to core2 on the server side, as distcc is not working for native. Can anyone give me a clue? Ciao, Uwe
