Re: OpenJDK-7 on kFreeBSD (feedback)

Hi Damien,

I've been trying again with newer openjdk-7 7~u3-2.1.1~pre1-2, using
dpkg-buildpackage, and keeping a log this time of a single build
attempt, immediately after extracting from source.

With -j2 I am seeing this error first:

>  Error: <dialoginput.bolditalic.korean-nanumcoding> entry is missing!!!
> 
>  Error: <allfonts.korean-un> entry is missing!!!

> make[6]: Leaving directory `/home/steven/openjdk-7-7~u3-2.1.1~pre1/build/openjdk/jdk/make/sun/awt'

I then see another error where patches/boot/javafiles.patch is applied
twice, but that may be a consequence of the above error.


With -j4 there seem to be races, including:

Then the build stops before I get to the fontconfig issue.

Something was trying to package up CORBA libraries before they have been
built.  And there are many unsafe uses of ';' instead of '&&' here which
could lead to other problems.


We should probably try to fix these issues with parallelism because it
makes comparing build logs very difficult.  I suspect that when I
specify -j1 it is still being overridden somewhere.  And the issues seen
on buildds may simply be some race during build (e.g. some output file
used before it's fully built).
