Dirkjan: any hint about why it times out?
Maybe we should replace -j4 with the -j we extract from MAKEOPTS? This could apparently be due to running with a -j that's too high.
I'm getting timeouts with -j4 on dual core system where I normally use -j4. Maybe we should drop to -j1 entirely (ie. drop the -jX argument)? It's better to be slower but correct than faster but wrong.

It should be possible to extract from the MAKEOPTS whatever it has for -j, using some clever shell-script? I think I've seen it before...
One way of doing it: for i in ${MAKEOPTS}; do case "${i}" in -j*|--jobs=*) our_j="${i}" ;; *) # Ignore ;; esac done Dustin: have you removed -j4 from the ebuild or from MAKEOPTS? Currently we're using -j4 regardless of your MAKEOPTS settings -- check mercurial-1.7.2.ebuild file.
(In reply to comment #7) > Dustin: have you removed -j4 from the ebuild or from MAKEOPTS? Currently we're > using -j4 regardless of your MAKEOPTS settings -- check mercurial-1.7.2.ebuild > file. I just lowered -j in my MAKEOPTS. Generally, it is a bad idea to hardcode -j greater than 1 in the ebuild, IMO. I will hardcode -j1 in the ebuild and test tomorrow.
(In reply to comment #8) > I will hardcode -j1 in the ebuild and test tomorrow. Hardcoding -j1 in the ebuild prevents the time-out. However, I ran now in bug #339670. As far as I read there, this has been fixed in portage-2.2.0_alpha8, but not sure whether this fix has been included into stable portage. Could you please check with zmedico?

Cool, thank you for testing this. Dirkjan: I think that keeping it safe and sticking with -j1 (or no -j option at all) is the best bet. > As far as I read there, this has been fixed in portage-2.2.0_alpha8, but not > sure whether this fix has been included into stable portage. Could you please > check with zmedico? Now it has not been integrated with <2.2.0_alpha8. Zac: could we get the fix for recursion limit with symlinks in 2.1.9.26? It affects stable dev-vcs/mercurial.

Okay. I applied the patch attached to bug #339670 to portage and with -j1, I was able to successfully emerge mercurial-1.7.
I've removed -j4 from 1.7, 1.7.1 and 1.7.2.
