Version: 2.18.3-7.1 Hello,
It seems that there is some IPv6 support in distcc, but it is broken and
renders the program unusable if it is used.
If no bind address is specified using --listen then distccd binds to all
interfaces (IPv4 and IPv6) quite happily. However any connections
coming in over IPv6 are rejected, and the following appears in the
logfile:
distccd[7173] (dcc_check_client) connection from
2404:130:b1ff:1:2d0:59ff:fec0:fba9:42076
distccd[7173] (dcc_check_client) Notice: ipv6 ACLs not implemented
What makes this more confusing is that I don't have any ACLs set, I'm
happy for any and all connections to be accepted.
To make matters worse the distcc client only tries the first IP address
that is returned for a hostname. I have IPv6 and IPv4 address against
all my boxes. So now I need to have the IPv4 addresses for my compile
hosts in DISTCC_HOSTS, not the hostnames.
Cheers!
