If I try to compile gconf on my 4 processor alpha box, the ebuild fails due to a compilation error if I set MAKEOPTS="-j4". Setting MAKEOPTS="-j1" solves the problem.
added a possible fix to gconf-1.2.1 and gconf-2.2.0, could you please test one of those -after rsync ofcourse- to make sure it works ?
ok, re-emerged gconf-1.2.1 and everything went well. it seems, the bug can be closed now.
.
with -j8 on x86, I get make[2]: *** No rule to make target `../backends/libgconfbackend-oldxml.la', needed by `xml-test'. Stop. make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... -j1 works fine. This is gconf 2.8.1 on x86. Thanks! Joe
not sure how to reactivate/change the status on this bug, it just shows "leave as resolved fixed".
