Choosing A Webhost:

Re: Multiple fink builds |
It shouldn't be a problem. The only minor itch I can see is that dpkg
is non-parallel, so if several build processes finish at around the
same time and all try to invoke dpkg, the first process to invoke dpkg
will succeed and the rest will fail. Dpkg locks the files when it's
working on the database, so there's no risk of corruption, but you will
have to reinstall the other packages (no recompile necessary).
In my opinion, it might even be advisable to run two builds at once,
because then the CPU and hard disk will be used more effectively --
provided you have enough memory of course.
Wouldn't it be a good idea to add a "nice" option to fink? I usually
like to write "nice -20 fink install ...; say 'Installation done'",
hide the Terminal and then continue with other things. The computer is
more responsive that way.

multiple sessions trying to access (for write) fink's database files?
Thanks, Phil
