Why doesn't PTS system-info see GCC?

[blueweb]

Michael Could you perhaps test installing ccache on Fedora 28 to confirm the compiler reporting behavior with PTS?

I believe ccache was installed when I installed the "C Development Tools and Libraries" group of packages. (dnf group install "C Development Tools and Libraries")

Removing ccache from the PATH works! Isn't ccache installed by default? What could be messing up my system?

Maybe unrelated, but I also noticed that some benchmarks are way off from the reference results for the same CPU. Eg. on my 2700X smallpt takes ~45 seconds while the reference is ~12s. But if I run PTS in docker it's 13s.

If you drop the ccache dir from the path does it work?

I uninstalled Clang to see if that would remove some conflict. Still no GCC:

  OPERATING SYSTEM:   Fedora 28
    Kernel:           4.17.18-200.fc28.x86_64 (x86_64)
    Desktop:          MATE 1.20.2
    Compiler:         LLVM 6.0.1 + CUDA 9.1
    Security:         SELinux + __user pointer sanitization + Full AMD retpoline IBPB Protection

Not to my knowledge.

$ $PATH
bash: /usr/lib64/ccache:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/home/[USER]/.local/bin:/home/[USER]/bin: No such file or directory

I noticed the lack of GCC when I ran a benchmark from an article and noticed the difference in compiler info between my system and the reference.

No issues here on Fedora 28 with the same GCC build... Did you change your PATH with anything odd or anything of that like?

With phoronix test suite v7.8.0 and v8.0.1, system-info shows:

OPERATING SYSTEM:   Fedora 28
    Kernel:           4.17.18-200.fc28.x86_64 (x86_64)
    Desktop:          MATE 1.20.2
    Display Server:   X Server 1.19.6
    Compiler:         Clang 6.0.1 + LLVM 6.0.1 + CUDA 9.1
    Security:         SELinux + __user pointer sanitization + Full AMD retpoline IBPB + SSB disabled via prctl and seccomp Protection

But GCC is installed:

$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 8.1.1 20180712 (Red Hat 8.1.1-5)
