A recent build-report showed a problem building the vile port. The symptom pointed to a problem with parallel make. The likely problem seems to be as reported against the make program here: http://gnats.netbsd.org/55542 "make: parallel builds and double-colon don't get along" That is, double-colon targets in the makefiles cause the build to fail. vile uses this in several places, and rewriting the makefiles to work around a bug in a given make-program isn't going to happen. It works well enough with gmake, but is easy to reproduce with bmake with my Debian/testing for instance: --- all --- --- bnf-filt.o --- rm -f bnf-filt.c --- css-filt.o --- echo "#include <flt_defs.h>" > css-filt.c flex -t css-filt.l >> css-filt.c clang -c -I. -I.. -I../filters -I.. -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -D_DEFAULT_SOURCE -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500 -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -I./filters -g -O2 -Qunused-arguments -Wno-error=implicit-function-declaration css-filt.c bmake: all#1: cohort has parents bmake: stopped in /usr/build/vile/vile The problem with make appears to be recent; it works with FreeBSD 12. (I tried installing FreeBSD-13-current...). The Debian/testing package also is new: https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/bmake "bmake (20200710-5)" The port should be updated to suppress the parallel-make feature.
