Compilation fails with parallel make -j N #7

Closed tseemann closed 3 years ago

tseemann commented 9 years ago

If you try a parallel make (eg. make -j 8) the build fails.

This indicates some of your dependency rules are broken.

We'll look at it, thanks.

Can you describe how you're using the ngs APIs?

This is to build sra-tools from source, for the Brew package: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-science/blob/a1252b84b9e115adbf51b326080101bd9e63d89f/sratoolkit.rb

As a workaround, you can just run make without -j. You may notice that internally we recursively invoke make and use -j where applicable, especially in the ncbi-vdb project.

Yes we de-parallelize the make for this package because of the bug, but it slows down the build a lot.
