Using MAKEFLAGS=-j3

>>> Source unpacked.
>>> Compiling source in /var/tmp/portage/exim-4.62/work/exim-4.62 ...
/bin/sh: line 0: cd: build-exim-gentoo: No such file or directory
make[1]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/exim-4.62/work/exim-4.62'
/bin/sh: line 0: cd: build-exim-gentoo: No such file or directory

>>> Creating links to source files...
make[2]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/exim-4.62/work/exim-4.62'
mkdir: cannot create directory `build-exim-gentoo': File exists
*** It appears that ../scripts/MakeLinks was previously interrupted.
*** You need to remove the build directory, and then run 'make' again.
make[2]: *** [build-directory] Error 1
Comment 1 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-01-11 20:48:43 UTC
So don't set MAKEFLAGS; should be MAKEOPTS instead.
