Hi Arjen: I think it would be worthwhile for you to report both the parallel make issue and the parallel ctest issue that you have encountered to the MSYS2 list. I cannot even make an informed guess whether those two issues are related or not since as far as I know the ctest application does not use "make" facilities for implementing parallel ctests. But maybe the MSYS2 developers can advise you whether both ctest and make (I would advise you to mention the exact package names including version numbers that you are using for both in your MSYS2 mailing list post) use a common facility that has a known bug on MinGW-w64/MSYS2? More later concerning your actual working "unparallel" result. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
