Re: Build failure due to make -j8

my (uni-processor) machine, it failed too. The package is automake
based. Has this behavior been observed with other packages? Could it be
a problem with make or automake, or would it be specific to the package
only?
Gérard
most likely its in your package. going fowrawd we will see in the build
system -j32 and quite probably -j64 what generally happens is that things
get built out of order with the higher thread count.
