I am not sure what you are suggesting for change, though: (A) Removing use flag ccache altogether? That could result in the uninstallation of the ccache package if it was the sole dependency of catalyst. Correct? (B) Remove the sed magic only? That would remove the comfort of automatic addition of option ccache. Any gains? (C) Something else? Best, Sebastian
