Replying to [comment:23 jdemeyer]:
And the reason for this is that files like '''M'''akefile and README etc.
(should) appear first in directory listings, therefore uppercase.
Btw, I wonder if we should at all let the mixed-up output appear on the
screen (i.e., {{{stdout}}}) when doing ''parallel'' builds. This isn't
''that'' easy to handle, because the "decision" to actually perform a
parallel build is currently (IMHO unnecessarily) made in
{{{spkg/install}}}. If we want to change that (I'd prefer having just
''"Building package xy..."'', ''"Successfully installed package xy"'' /
''"Error installing package xy"'' on the screen and in the main log,
{{{$SAGE_ROOT/install.log}}}), this should of course be addressed on
another ticket.
It's currently hard to see which package actually failed to install after
getting ''"Error building Sage."''; grepping for "Error" gives a lot of
harmless lines.
