You're going to have a hard time believing this. I ran into this |
11 |
same problem some time ago on an older machine. The solution is to set |
12 |
|
13 |
MAKEOPTS="-j1" |
14 |
|
15 |
in /etc/make.conf and restart the emerge. There are one or two other |
16 |
packages for which this is necessary. I simply leave "-j1" on all the |
17 |
time. It's not worth the hassle when a compile blows up occasionally, |
18 |
and then switch MAKEOPTS back and forth. Yes, emerges are a bit slower, |
19 |
but consider how much time you "save" versus how much this one incident |
20 |
has cost you. Besides, you can usually emerge while working, or fire it |
21 |
up before going to bed. |
