Since the move to Ubuntu 26.04 our sparse build frequently fails with: INSTALL /home/runner/bin/sparsec INSTALL /home/runner/share/man/man1/sparse.1 INSTALL /home/runner/share/man/man1/cgcc.1 install: cannot create directory '/home/runner/share/man/man1' make: *** [Makefile:309: /home/runner/share/man/man1/sparse.1] Error 1
This is caused by a known bug in Rust uutils that fails install -D if the directory is created in parallel by another process: https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/issues/12355 The issue is fixed upstream, but it's not clear when the fixed v0.12.0 will find its way into Ubuntu 26.04 repositories, if at all. Let's keep the parallel build, but install serially as a workaround. Need to pass the HAVE_SQLITE into both, as both commands are using it.
