Hi, it's a mix of versions:
Ubuntu 9.04 machine, distcc package from repository: distcc 2.18.3 i486-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) built Aug 5 2008 01:26:08 CentOS 5.2 machine, distcc built from tarball: distcc 3.0 i686-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1, 2 and 3) (default port 3632) built Sep 27 2008 15:02:53 I didn't try updating yet. No other errors before the make one, that's the full message. You believe it's an incompatibility issue? -- Paul Eipper On Wed, Oct 7, 2009 at 6:15 PM, Fergus Henderson <fer...@google.com> wrote: > Hi, > > Some basic information might be helpful: > - what version of distcc? > - what OS? > - any other error messages before the "make: *** [DrawContext.o] Error 5"? > > If it is an old version of distcc, have you tried upgrading your distcc > client and servers with a recent version, e.g. distcc 3.1? > > On Wed, Oct 7, 2009 at 4:16 PM, Paul Eipper <lkrai...@gmail.com> wrote: >> >> Hi, >> >> we are running distcc for cross-compilation, it works fine sometimes, >> but apparently randomly we get an error like this: >> >> make: *** [DrawContext.o] Error 5 >> make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... >> >> when inspecting the DrawContext.o file, it's a gzipped file containing >> the object code.
