So, do we agree that it would be nice to not "build conflict" with ccache? If so, I'd be willing to investigate making it work without the "ccache" and "distcc" build conflicts. For starters, though, I'd like to know why this BuildConflict is there in the first place, so that I can verify whether my changes actually work. In a quick test, simply commenting out the BuildConflicts did not cause any particular build issues. The .info file also contains no comments that explain this build conflict...
