In its Makefile MAKE_JOBS_UNSAFE is set and I'm trying to figure out if it's acutally needed or not. Subversion's log has the following entry: r244490 | pav | 2009-11-20 00:41:55 +0100 (Fri, 20 Nov 2009) | 4 lines - Mark MAKE_JOBS_UNSAFE Reported by: pointyhat This commit message is undoubtedly correct, but alas, not very convincing. And unfortunately, I couldn't find the report by pointyhat. If I remove MAKE_JOBS_UNSAFE, the port seems to build without any problems at all. I also couldn't find any restrictions specified in the source of GNU indent. However, from this we cannot deduce that it's safe to build the port in parallel. How do porters usually deal with such a situation? Best, Moritz
