When I merge nvidia-drivers I get: QA: install QA Notice: make jobserver unavailable: make[2]: warning: jobserver unavailable: using -j1. Add `+' to parent make rule.

I confirm.
Thanks for the report, assigning to maintainer

I get the same message with x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-180.29 merge. My MAKEOPTS="-j3" for my AMD-64 (am running x86 os). Does this mean that the drivers are being compiled for a single process? That would explain some issues I have been having with my X-win refresh & screen/window updates.

Using MAKEOPTS="-j3" or MAKEOPTS="-j1" won't hopefully change the driver in use To be clear, compiling with MAKEOPTS="-jN" is not an option that changes the objects created by the build procedure, it allows you to use more "make" threads, spawning more build processes. Your issues with X can't be related. AFAIK, nvidia Makefile is poorly written with explicit calls to "make" instead of ${MAKE}.

I sent them an e-mail a while back. I'll prod them again.
