Package: dpkg-dev
Version: 1.18.22
Severity: normal
Starting to package up udisks2 for Devuan (I'm new to packaging in
general), I noticed that even though I was telling dpkg-buildpackage to
build in parallel ('dpkg-buildpackage -b --jobs=auto -i.*'), only one
core was being used.
Reading the manpage on --jobs and --jobs-try, it sounds like various
things are being set to ensure parallel building, but it took overriding
dh_auto_build for that to be actually paid attention to:
==================================
override_dh_auto_build:
dh_auto_build --parallel
==================================
Is that intended behaviour?
Thanks
