ccache doesn't work with emerge[solved]

Hello,

I just installed freshly Gentoo, then emerged kde. But before that I installed ccache and configured like said in Handbook. And when I type

Code: Select all

ccache -s

it drops same statistics: all zeros except cache size 2G (I configured like that). And during emerging it also shows zeros. But if I try to make or compile handly something it functions normally.... so probably something is screwed up. I just don't get it what.

Code: Select all

CCACHE_DIR=/var/tmp/ccache/ watch ccache -s

What do the 'compile failed' and 'cache miss' numbers mean?

Code: Select all

I assume this was introduced by a change to portage and not to ccache? Its seems to sort of undermine the existing stash in /root/.ccache , but I dont mind having a few eggs broken.

On my system, I moved out the young & understocked /var/tmp/ccache, moved /root/.ccache to that location and did a ton of chmods to make it match the one that was more recently created. Then I made a symlink from /root/.ccache to /var/tmp/ccache . If you actually want portage ccache separate from root's other compilings, one wouldn't want to do that, but I'm having trouble envisioning a scenario where that is desirable.

I suppose the goal was to make emerge with ccache usable by any user in the "portage" group?

I was experiencing the same problem and this helped me.
