NAME

       icecc-create-env - Create a tar for icecream distributed compiler to use

SYNOPSIS

       icecc-create-env

DESCRIPTION

       /usr/lib/icecc/icecc-create-env creates an archive file containing all the files necessary
       to setup the  compiler  environment.  The  file  will  have  a  random  unique  name  like
       "ddaea39ca1a7c88522b185eca04da2d8.tar.bz2"  per  default.  Rename  it  to  something  more
       expressive for your convenience, e.g. "i386-3.3.1.tar.bz2".

       Set   ICECC_VERSION=<filename_of_archive_containing_your_environment>   in    the    shell
       environment  where  you  start  the  compile  jobs and the file will be transferred to the
       daemons where your compile jobs run and installed to a chroot  environment  for  executing
       the  compile  jobs  in  the  environment  fitting  to  the environment of the client. This
       requires that the icecream daemon runs as root.

       If you do not set ICECC_VERSION, the client will use a tar ball  provided  by  the  daemon
       running  on the same machine. So you can always be sure you're not tricked by incompatible
       gcc versions - and you can share your computer with users of other distributions.
