There are two ways to use ccache\&. You can either prefix your compilation commands with \fBccache\fR or you can let ccache masquerade as the compiler by creating a symbolic link (named as the compiler) to ccache\&. The first method is most convenient if you just want to try out ccache or wish to use it for some specific projects\&. The second method is most useful for when you wish to use ccache for all your compilations\&.
.sp
-To use the first method, just make sure that \fBccache\fR is in your \fBPATH\fR\&.
+To use the second method on a Debian system, it's easiest to just prepend \fI/usr/lib/ccache\fR to your \fBPATH\fR\&. \fI/usr/lib/ccache\fR contains symlinks for all compilers currently installed as Debian packages\&.
.sp
-To use the symlinks method, do something like this:
+Alternatively, you can create any symlinks you like yourself like this:
.sp
.if n \{\
.RS 4
.\}
.nf
-cp ccache /usr/local/bin/
-ln \-s ccache /usr/local/bin/gcc
-ln \-s ccache /usr/local/bin/g++
-ln \-s ccache /usr/local/bin/cc
-ln \-s ccache /usr/local/bin/c++
+ln \-s /usr/bin/ccache /usr/local/bin/gcc
