same for backwards compatibility, so no PKGREVISION bump.
lead to overloads of very first distribution site. Moreover, if first

you have to wait for timeout each time. To distribute load on master

intermix list of MASTER_SITES with MASTER_SORT_RANDOM feature. Any of

target.
MAKE_JOBS is undefined by default. You can test this by setting
in mk.conf: MAKE_JOBS=5 for example.
Some package just won't build correctly with this -- these individual
packages can set MAKE_JOBS_SAFE=no to disable it.
This is based on discussion from last December 2005. Some pkgsrc
users are using ideas like this.
Note I have been using this since December 2005 on various single
processor and multiprocessor systems. (Once I kept some stats on
performance but have misplaced that now.) I haved tested this with
many packages (but not a bulk build) on Linux, NetBSD and DragonFly.
This commit doesn't include the commits for the MAKE_JOB_SAFE. As
this is experimental it needs more testing. Some examples of problems
are: comms/lrzsz, databases/gramps2, editors/vim, graphics/MesaLib,
graphics/netpbm, net/bind9, print/ghostscript-esp, textproc/libxml,
and www/lynx.
* All the smarts is now encapsulated in the "fetch" script. The fetch
script understands how to use the distinfo file (if specified) to
look up the size and checksums of the file to fetch and will use
that information to verify checksums of the fetched files or resume
transfers of interrupted fetches.
* Move the default settings for FETCH_RESUME_ARGS and FETCH_OUTPUT_ARGS
for "ftp" from mk/defaults/mk.conf into mk/fetch/fetch.mk. We rewrite
it to avoid needing conditional statements.
* Avoid spawning a new make(1) process just to mirror a distfile.
* Split out fetch-list targets into a separate file fetch-list.mk.
These targets should probably be moved into a standalone script.
* Fix distclean target to properly remove partial downloads.
Dar is built by default with an arbitrary-size-integer library for managing
all file length/timestamp details. If 32-bit or 64-bit integers (with
overflow protection) are sufficient for requirements, the dar-int32 and
dar-int64 options can significantly reduce the run-time memory and CPU
overheads of Dar.
9.1 as legacy option.
SUSE 10.0 supports more architectures (i386, powerpc, x86_64) and is
already required for some packages (e.g., acroread7). It will help to
get more testing so we can phase out 9.1 before the next stable branch.
