[ptxdist] weird ptxdist -q -j go problems

[Erwin Rol <mailinglists@erwinrol.com>]

Hey all,

how wel is the -j option of ptxdist tested ? Is it used a lot by others
or is it more an obscure untested option ?

With the lastest version of ptxdist I wanted to try the -j option and
am running into weird problems. 

First I forgot to add a _CONF_TOOL setting in one of my *.make files,
and I found a file called "11" in my dir with the following content;

ptxdist: error: automatic prepare tool selection failed. Set <PKG>_CONF_TOOL

that "11" somehow sounds like it should have been a filedescriptor
number and not an actual file. 


Of course not having the _CONF_TOOL was an error from my side, after
fixing it it seemed to work.

But now the ptxdist -j -q go from time to time stops with an error. In
the log file it always seems to say something like;

/home/ANNAX.LOCAL/erro/Projects/ABE.centos7/bsps/Seco_E38XX_64/master/p
txdist/bin/ptxdist go -j -q; (exit value: 2)


I have seen this with busybox and openssl with different compilers
(x86_62 and armv5). It always is exit value: 2.

When I than do a ./ptdixt go again it happily continues (even if I use
-q -j) 

Any idea what is causing this? 

I hat this under Centos7 with a 24core and 32core machine.
