#21119 closed defect (fixed)

star and automatic (?) "-j2" flag

Reported by: alex_a_bordeaux@… Owned by: mww@…
Priority: Low Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 1.8.0
Keywords: Cc:
Port: star

Description (last modified by mf2k (Frank Schima))

environment: freshly installed macports on previously updated snowleopard

behaviour / explanation: (viz. attached debug output)

installing star (archivers) fails due to automatic application of "-j2" flag to underlying smake (note: uses not "std." make that understands this flag!).

forcing portage to ignore this "j" flag by adding "use_parallel_build no" to portfile solves this problem.

question: if i remember right, it should be the other way round, and the "j" flag should have been added if the portfile included a "use_parallel_build yes"...

Resolution: fixed
Status: newclosed

Fixed in r57051. Note that, as of MacPorts 1.8.0, parallel building is enabled by default (to take advantage of the larger number of machines with multiple cores).

Note: See TracTickets for help on using tickets.
