Distcc makepkg issues

I am hoping to use distcc since I have a older dual core laptop and wish to be able to compile stuff from the aur faster.

The idea was to add more machines once I figure this out.

I can run straight 

make all -j32 CC=distcc CXX=distcc

it runs fine but if I try to use makepkg I get this

distcc[249829] (dcc_r_result_header) ERROR: server provided no answer. Is the server configured to allow access from your IP address? Is the server performing authentication and your client isn't? Does the server have the compiler installed? Is the server configured to access the compiler?
distcc[249829] Warning: failed to distribute scripts/mod/devicetable-offsets.c to 192.168.1.119/32, running locally instead

I am lost as to why makepkg doesn't work but make does.

Re: Distcc makepkg issues

192.168.1.119 is the ip-address of your volunteer server that you want to use for compiling ?

Does it run distccd.service ? please post /etc/conf.d/distccd from the volunteer.

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?
Try clean chroot manager by graysky

Re: Distcc makepkg issues

Firstly, follow this wiki article.  Your DISTCC_HOSTS= is not right/you did not include localhost.
Secondly, if you're trying to compile the linux kernel, see: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Di … el_package

DISTCC_ARGS="--allow 192.168.1.0/24 --listen 192.168.1.119 -N 20 -j64 --log-level error --log-file /tmp/distccd.log"

When I run make with distcc it works perfectly.

I applied

sed -i '/HAVE_GCC_PLUGINS/d' arch/x86/Kconfig

to the kernel.

Isn't localhost a optional thing depending on what you are trying to do?
