change ccache dir?

How would I change the ccache dir from /var/tmp/ccache or whatever the default is to /mnt/media/var/tmp/ccache ? The partition var is one doesn't have much room left, and /mnt/media has plenty.

It's most certainly GNU/Linux, not Linux. Read more at

Create a new entry in /etc/env.d with "CCACHE_DIR=your_dir". For example:

echo CCACHE_DIR=/mnt/media/var/tmp/ccache > /etc/env.d/97ccache

Then run env-update

There is also an entry in make.conf, where you can specify the dir, but it doesn't work for me.
