Hi Tully,

Thank you for your answer.

I think the reference to `ccache` in that folder name is because `ccache`
is being used by default in the environment. I checked console output for
two other ROS packages and they both have this line in their CMake output:

-- Check for working C compiler: /usr/lib/ccache/gcc
-- Check for working C compiler: /usr/lib/ccache/gcc -- works


For example:

[actionlib]
http://jenkins.ros.org/job/devel-hydro-actionlib/ARCH_PARAM=amd64,UBUNTU_PARAM=precise,label=devel/lastBuild/console
[convex_decomposition]
http://jenkins.ros.org/job/devel-hydro-convex_decomposition/ARCH_PARAM=amd64,UBUNTU_PARAM=precise,label=devel/16/console

Exactly similar thing happens in the full console of the problematic
package:
http://jenkins.ros.org/job/ros-hydro-ardrone-autonomy_binarydeb_precise_amd64/2/consoleFull

I guess `pbuilder` is integrating `ccache` by default:
