The kopete build crashes early on when compiling with -j7 and distcc, or -j5 and distcc disabled. I don't see an indication of what the actual error is, only that make has exited with error 2. The attached build logs are for -j7 and distcc. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge kopete 2. 3.

Created attachment 168300 [details] kde-base/kopete-4.1.2 build log This is with distcc enabled and -j7
Created attachment 168302 [details] kde-base/kopete-4.1.2 environment This is with distcc enabled and -j7
No problems concerning compilation on my machine (amd64) with -j3. I don't use distcc but I'm using ccache. Try to don't use distcc and try to set -j2 in your make.conf.
As I mentioned, I've tried it with distcc disabled and -j5. I'm running a Q9300 quad core, so -j5 is appropriate.
For me it looks more like your distcc is broken. Because i have here -j40 (lots and lots of pcs) and it works just fine. Tried on 3 machines only but i guess it is fair testing. Reopen if you think it is really -j issue.
