Although i don't understand a word, i think that this sounds like "Doctor, it hurts when i do.."
Please describe the problem you are facing and suggest what should be done why and how, i shall close this bug otherwise. |

Ok,
A distro is something more complete than buildroot alone. The buildroot package is only 'one step among others'. The full build can follow some method like lfs (linux from scratch).
Having ccache dir outside of the tree build avoid loosing what have been already compiled when some kind of full rebuild of the distro is performed. In other words, the cachedir is in a safe configurable place.
tchuss. |

It seems the request is:
Add a Config.in/Kconfig option for user-specified CCACHE_DIR defaulting to current value
This is within my ability, but I don't have a ccache build working (I'm broken with MacOSX right now). I will contact submitter. |

ccache will do by default, what you need, but buildroot does:
$(SED) "s,getenv(\"CCACHE_PATH\"),\"$(STAGING_DIR)/usr/bin-ccache\",g" \
$(CCACHE_DIR1)/execute.c
$(SED) "s,getenv(\"CCACHE_DIR\"),\"$(CCACHE_DIR1)/cache\",g" \
$(CCACHE_DIR1)/ccache.c
If it did not do that replacement, or replaced with
getenv("BUILDROOT_CCACHE_PATH") and
getenv("BUILDROOT_CCACHE_DIR") you would be OK.
Then the user has to set up these variables outside Buildroot,
so Buildroot needs to set up these to a default. |

Using the established CCACHE_PATH and CCACHE_DIR (i.e. dropping our patching those out) and providing menuconfig-entries depending on ccache would IMO be the proper thing to do.
Is anybody willing to attach such a patch (that is tested and works for him/her)?
thanks, |

This patch works well for me. I leave CCACHE_PATH as is since those should be relative to the toolchain's staging dir.
But I make CCACHE_DIR configurable so I can build a cross compiler for others to use without having to keep the builddir around and accessible to them. |
