Yes, that should work (though you only need to do it for dh_auto_build; everything else can still be parallelised). It would be nice to be able to fix the generated Makefile, but the package is small enough that it won't make much difference, and I fear that would be a pain given it's all generated by automake. In fact, there's an open bug for this[0] which even has a comment from you from 2009 :) Regards, James [0] https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=541713
