I had a similar problem with distcc. Not a stack smashing attack though. Distcc should not be used to emerge any core packages such as python, portage, gcc etc. The compilation of python went wrong and hence rendered my system useless. I ended up having to reinstall unfortunately since my emerge was broke even typing emerge threw up errors. So let this serve as a warning to those thinking of using distcc. Make sure your compilers are the same and that you are not emerging critical packages. -- Ryan Viljoen Bsc(Eng) (Electrical) "Facts are stubborn things, but statistics are more pliable." - Mark Twain -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
