  * summary:  macaulay2 optional spkg situation is totally foo-bared =>
              macaulay2 optional spkg is broken with parallel
              make

Old description:

> 1. The only optional/experimental Macaulay2 spkg is
> "macaulay2-20061014.p1.spkg" in experimental.  Huh?  That's ancient.
>
> COMMENT: That 2006 one doesn't work if you do {{{export MAKE="make
> -j4"}}} then the build fails as follows:
> {{{
> checking for gmake... make -j20
> checking whether make -j20 is GNU make... ./configure: line 1497: make
> -j20: command not found
> configure: make -j20: GNU make is required
> }}}
>
> This could be fixed by not using $MAKE to do anything in parallel, which
> would be better than just having it break...
>
> 3. There are some newer ones here:
>
> http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/gfurnish/old/spkg/
>
> But the newest: macaulay2-1.1-r7221.spkg fails to build immediately with
> errors about gdbm.spkg missing, but there is no gdbm.spkg.

New description:

 {{{
 checking for strip... strip
 checking whether strip accepts the remove-section option... yes
 checking "checking whether make -j8 is GNU make"... ../../configure: line
 2361: make -j8: command not found
 configure: error: "GNU make is required: make -j8"
 }}}

 Cheers,

 Michael
