MAKEFLAGS not honored when building an a chroot
I'm building within a chroot but only 1/4 of my cores seem to be allowed to do the work despite /etc/makepkg.conf from inside the chroot saying -j5. Another setting I need to tweak maybe?

Re: MAKEFLAGS not honored when building an a chroot
Doesn't the chroot have its own /etc/makepkg.conf?

@ngoonee - yes, that's what I meant by "inside the chroot." This is not normal behavior I'm guessing.

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

Re: MAKEFLAGS not honored when building an a chroot
1) makechrootpkg is not using your system /etc/makepkg.conf and it has its own in chroot/root/etc/makepkg.conf which is copied in chroot/copy and compilation
2) you need a ~/.makepkg.conf with MAKEFLAGS="-j5" and this would be used inside chroot by makechrootpkg
3) just for future references. make 3.82 doesn't honor makeflags. https://savannah.gnu.org/support/index.php?107487

Re: MAKEFLAGS not honored when building an a chroot
@wonder - thanks for the info. Just so you guys don't think I'm an idiot, I do understand that the chroot has its own makepkg.conf.
