6 Although technically I *could* create a new user and group for the
7 machine, I would rather not if possible. Doesn't look like this is
8 avoidable however, right?
9
10 I'll need to add the users manually to workaround this:
11
12 * You do not have useradd (bootstrap) from shadow so I didn't
13 * install the distcc user. Note that attempting to start the daemon
14 * will fail. Please install shadow and re-emerge distcc.
15 * *** Installation is not complete ***
16 * You must run the following as root:
17 * /usr/bin/distcc-config --install
18 * after booting or chrooting into /home/jolexa/portage/linux-32/
19 * ***SECURITY NOTICE***
20 * If you are upgrading distcc please make sure to run etc-update to
21 * update your /etc/conf.d/distccd and /etc/init.d/distccd files with
22 * added security precautions (the --listen and --allow directives)
