Summary: perl-Glib fails to build on large SMP systems Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: medium Priority: medium Component: perl-Glib AssignedTo: tcallawa@redhat.com ReportedBy: dchapman@redhat.com QAContact: extras-qa@fedoraproject.org CC: fedora-perl-devel-list@redhat.com
Description of problem: It appears that there are some dependency problems in the makefiles for perl-Glib. When I build on a really big ia64 system (i.e. more than 48 cpus) it fails in various ways such as:
make: *** No rule to make target `blib/lib/Glib/ParseXSDoc.pm', needed by `build/doc.pl'. Stop. make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
if I remove the %{?_smp_mflags} (which gives a -j <numcpus> option to make) from the make line it builds cleanly.
It is slightly (but not a lot since this is a small package) slower without this but seems it might be simplest just to remove the smp_mflags from the make line so it builds reliably.

------- Additional Comments From tcallawa@redhat.com 2008-01-15 18:34 EST ------- Indeed. Committing the change to the devel spec file to drop smp_mflags now.
I'm not going to rebuild this immediately, as I'm in the process of bootstrapping perl-5.10.0.
