Description Moritz Barsnick 2010-12-26 20:54:03 UTC
Description of problem:
Parallel build of the package is not correctly enabled.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.6.1-5

How reproducible:
Always on more than one CPU.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Build package.
2. Observe %build stage.
  
Actual results:
make

Expected results:
make -j2 (or similar, depending in no. of CPUs)

Additional info:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingGuidelines#Parallel_make

The cause is the mistyped macro usage %{?smp_mflags} instead of %{?_smp_mflags}.

The change log for Mon Dec  3 2007 (2.5.4-31) claims to have added support for parallel build. Apparently, nobody has noticed yet. ;-)
