[mythtv-users] Compiling Xbox "nothing to do" error?

Well I recompiled again using "distcc" awesome application thanks for the
tip. The compiling time went from 36 hours or so to less than 8, I'm not
really sure how long because I went to bed. Installation of distcc wasn't as
straight forward as it let on it was missing some points, it was close but
then anything that I've found with Linux has been close, there are
assumptions made...  I'm sure that will get a few reply's sorry if it
offends anyone I realize that is a very broad statement and should be
loosley interpreted..

Back to the problem I'm having, compiling completed fine this time without
the "Nothing to be done for Install" message. I think my problem was not
exporting qt before compiling. Anyway, there is no application mythtv-setup,
it doesn't exist? I have no idea why?

I could use some help and or guidance... Thanks.

This might help for anyone in the future trying to install distcc.... If
your compiling on an XBOX you NEED IT!

Download it from http://distcc.samba.org (wget http://.../distcc-
2.18.3.tar.gz) Untar the source code on your hard disk (tar xvfz
distcc-2.18.3.tar.gz)

Compile and install distcc by typing in a shell as root: *
*

* $ ./configure
$ make
$ make install
*
Once installed on each computer, start the daemon on each computer by typing
as root in a shell:
*
$ distccd --daemon --allow 192.168.1.100  192.168.1.101* (add the IP for
each computer allowed to connect to it)*
*
On the computer that has the source code for the software you are planning
to compile, type the following:
*
$ export DISTCC_HOSTS='localhost computer1 computer2' *(if you rebooted you
must run this again)*
*
Replace computer1, computer2, etc., with the names of the computers on your
network running distcc or the IP's.

Now when you compile the program, add '-j

*$ *make -j6 CC=distcc
