Bug 35959 – kdebase-3.1.4 fails to compile on paralell builds

• Status: VERIFIED NEEDINFO
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Christian Malerbakken 2003-12-16 11:00:31 UTC]

I've just noticed that kdebase-3.1.4 keeps failing to compile on my SMP system (MAKEOPTS=-j3). This was reproducable, and all tries crashed at the same place.

However, when running "MAKEOPTS="-j1" && emerge kdebase" everything went smoothly (but slowly) by, and kdebase got installed as expected.

Just a heads up for both users and developers.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge kdebase-3.1.4 with MAKEOPTS set to more than -j1
2.
3.

It also fails to compile on my single CPU system, unless I also override the MAKEOPTS="-j2" in make.globals with MAKEOPTS="-j1".

For me this works with -j3 on a HyperThreading CPU. 

Can you post the output when it fails?

need more info.

Close dead old bug originally resolved "needinfo".
