I've seen this sort of thing with several packages when building with multiple threads. I'm pretty sure it's just a matter of the generated makefiles getting lazy with listing the dependencies (so it thinks there are some things it can do in parallel that it really can't). I just keep track of the troublemaker packages and build them with -j1, and they build on the first try. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
