[Description Brendan Chandler 2004-02-12 05:35:30 UTC]

nmap 3.50-r1 fails to build with distcc, as shown below.

ms957g root # emerge nmap -av

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild   R   ] net-analyzer/nmap-3.50-r1  -gnome +gtk  0 kB

Do you want me to merge these packages? [Yes/No] yes

Sorry, I should have also made it clear that it does work if distcc is disabled.

[Comment 2 Michal Januszewski (RETIRED) 2004-02-13 08:44:27 UTC]

Does `MAKEOPTS="-j1" emerge nmap`  work for you?

[Comment 3 Brendan Chandler 2004-02-14 09:33:13 UTC]

Yes, -j1 works.

[Comment 4 Michal Januszewski (RETIRED) 2004-02-14 14:05:27 UTC]

Ok, thanks, it should be fixed now.
