Hi Guys,

I've tried using distcc in place of the gcc compiler and I keep
finding this linking error. I understand that linking is done locally
from where I'm building the executables, but are there any caveats
that I should be looking out for?

I'm running the build in a virtual box running Ubuntu 8.10 (32-bit)
and another desktop running distcc with Ubuntu 8.04 (64-bit) having
the same compiler run with -m32 (to ensure 32-bit builds).

My user-config.jam looks like this:

  using gcc : 4.2 : distcc : <cxxflags>-m32 ;

Am I doing anything wrong?

TIA
