sad_plan: you are the maintainer of the package "chicken" right ?
<sad_plan>
vouivre: no? didnt even know tha was a package to begin with.
<sad_plan>
phoebos: is the maintainer for that. I dont use scheme at all. mostly just rc. but trying to do some C every now and then. maybe some posix sh
<vouivre>
ok, sorry. I was convinced phoebos had not the same nick on irc. Bad memory
<vouivre>
phoebos: in the package chicken, why do use in the build file "export MAKEFLAGS="$MAKEFLAGS -j1""
<vouivre>
or a more general question: can some values for MAKEFLAGS, like MAKEFLAGS='-j14' leads to some problems ?
<vouivre>
maybe it's the problem I have with the package cups-filters
<vouivre>
sad_plan: rc. Do you mean the shell rc ?
<sad_plan>
vouivre: i do, yes
<sad_plan>
regarding makeflags, if you dont have enough ram, then yes. builds can fail because you run out of memory. if you get that error a lot, you might wanna turn the makeflags down by some. but usually it can be set to the number of threads your cpu has
<sad_plan>
or rather +1. so 4C/8T cpu, would be -j9
<vouivre>
I have 32Gb of memory on my computer, I don't think it's the problem.
<vouivre>
for cups-filters: configure is ok. Make is ok. Make install fails almost everytime.
<vouivre>
my MAKEFLAGS='-j18'. Fails almost everytime.
<vouivre>
if I set it down to '-j2', I've got 4 successes on 4 attempts.

makeflags shouldnt affect make install though
<sad_plan>
or rather, it doesnt
<vouivre>
for the moment I can't explain why it happens and if I'm searching in the good direction.
<sad_plan>
wierd
<vouivre>
ok.... but it's what I've got
<vouivre>
I'll do some more tests and ask somebody to test.
<vouivre>
on rc now. I have it on my mind for a long time, but I don't use it.
<vouivre>
Just curious, why rc over other shells ?

vouivre: -j1 is to disable parallel make, because chicken's makefile isn't great and the build can fail if done in parallel
<phoebos>
for other makeflags you should leave it to the user to choose based on their number of cores, but -j1 is an exception
