Description Sam Varshavchik 2000-05-03 12:40:43 UTC 
I have MAKEFLAGS="-j 4" in my environment, to build stuff in parallel, with
gmake.

the glibc src.rpm rebuild dies a horrible death -- the glibc makefile's
dependencies don't allow parallel builds.  Try it:

MAKEFLAGS="-j 4"
export MAKEFLAGS
rpm --rebuild glibc-2.1.3-15.src.rpm

Solution: add "unset MAKEFLAGS" in the spec file, just before make.

I build glibc with high -j numbers for ages.  At least the current code
definitely works, even on 4+ processor machines.
