I'm currently updating a string of ports on a dual-ppro box, and I'm increasingly unhappy that some ports can be compiled with "make -j<n>", some can't, and there's no way to know unless you try. How about introducing a Makefile variable that tells whether a port is j-safe? I guess we could add some Makefile juju to automatically drop back to -j1 if parallel building is not supported. Opinions on the general idea? -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@unix-ag.uni-kl.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
