!!! ERROR: mail-client/mutt-1.5.15 failed.

Compiling with MAKEOPTS='-j1' works fine.

Ooook, thank you. It didn't fail for me for some reason...

I'll force -j1 for now and will look for a proper solution later.

- ferdy

(I'm marking it ->FIXED because there is no ->WORKAROUNDED...)

I can't reproduce it. Does mutt-1.5.14 work for both of you?

I tried with -j5 and a couple of distcc nodes, and it seems to work well...

- ferdy

.14 worked fine for me some weeks ago. I've tried .15 with -j1, -j5 and -j,
only the first one worked. Could it have something to do with gdbm? I see
"-lgdbm" in both error messages, if you don't use it maybe that's why you can't
reproduce the problem.

Ok, I found a very easy fix for this. Will do in -r1.

- ferdy

Just for the record: Two different make code paths ended up running 'cd .. &&
make makedoc$(EXEEXT)' leading to a racy situation.

Fixed in -r1 and sent the fix upstream [1].
