That said, this seems to be a [Make] parallelism problem, not clear
why/how.
If I just rerun 'bitbake firefox' which restarts the compile step,
it will
run to completion. I do normally use -j4, but disabling this did
not seem
to make any difference.
Note: the previous version I built (3.5.2) did not exhibit this
behaviour.
Well that's depressing since we just added the best we can tell correct
magic to build firefox with make -jN. If you put PARALLEL_MAKE = "" in
the .bb, does it complete this time?
No change, I'm afraid.
Interesting. From log.do_compile, was make -jN taken out? I kinda fear
not...
I see only -j1 in the logs
I'm not getting anywhere with this. True, it builds, but only
after a second attempt (the first always fails as reported).
Perhaps you'd like to try? Just build firefox (3.6.2 is what
I'm using) for a PowerPC target (I use MACHINE=efika, DISTRO="angstrom-2008.1")
You'll need the attached patches to work around some of the va_list bugs.
Thanks
