#33256: pypy: Disable parallel build because gcc uses too much memory ---------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: macports.org@… | Owner: jmr@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.0.3 Keywords: | Port: pypy ---------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Changes (by ryandesign@…): * cc: jmr@… (removed) * cc: ryandesign@… (added) * owner: macports-tickets@… => jmr@… Comment: Apple will never ship a version of GCC newer than 4.2.1 because GCC changed its license to GPL 3 and Apple does not like that license. As of Xcode 4.2, there is no GCC in Xcode; with Xcode 4.0 and 4.1 we use llvm- gcc-4.2 instead of GCC; in Xcode 4.2 we use clang. In other ports that use lots of memory like this at compile time, I've simply disabled the parallel build. See #29547. We could potentially revisit whether we should only do that when the compiler is GCC. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/33256#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
