Description Björn Ruberg 2006-06-03 11:44:30 UTC

Hello,

today I had to discover that the new firefox-1.5 version doesn't want to compile for me.
I'm using gcc-4.1.1 and hadn't such a problem with previous versions.
Here is what goes wrong:

I put the compile log in an attachment.

Here my system info:

Comment 1 Björn Ruberg 2006-06-03 11:47:28 UTC

Created attachment 88288 [details]
log of the compile

Comment 2 Jory A. Pratt 2006-06-03 12:14:04 UTC

please run MAKEOPTS="-j1" emerge -u mozilla-firefox I will dig into the parrallel build problems later.

Comment 3 Björn Ruberg 2006-06-03 12:35:49 UTC

I tried again and this time it worked, even without changing my MAKEOPTS.

Comment 4 Jory A. Pratt 2006-06-03 12:47:47 UTC

Please leave bug open so I can fix parrallel build issue

Comment 5 Dave Jones 2006-06-05 02:02:47 UTC

Changing MAKEOPTS from j2 to j1 fixed the compilation problem for me.

  mozilla-firefox-1.5.0.7.ebuild, mozilla-firefox-1.5.0.8.ebuild,
  mozilla-firefox-2.0.ebuild:
  Restrict parallel builds until upstream can solve the problem properly.

Shouldn't the forced MAKEOPTS=-j1 be removed from the ebuilds before this bug is closed?

Comment 14 Kevin Lyles 2007-08-08 22:10:15 UTC

Making a copy of the 2.0.0.6 ebuild into an overlay and removing the forced -j1 (resulting in my -j3 being used) compiles and runs without apparent issues on my system (and compiles significantly faster).  Do we still need the forced -j1?  I can post more information if needed.

Now you can put WANT_MP="true" in your /etc/make.conf and ff will build with your MAKEOPTS.

Thanks to Alex Maclean for the idea.
