That's not a bug in make. It's a bug in whatever called make. You'd have to take that up with whoever maintains, what, lzo? They seem to have done:
martind@whitewater:~$ make -j7-l7 make: the `-j' option requires a positive integral argument Usage: make [options] [target] ... When they probably meant to have a space between the switches, comme ça: martind@whitewater:~$ make -j7 -l7 make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop. martind@whitewater:~$ -----Original Message----- From: bug-make-bounces+martin.dorey=hds....@gnu.org [mailto:bug-make-bounces+martin.dorey=hds....@gnu.org] On Behalf Of Christophe Poncy Sent: Wednesday, April 25, 2012 17:19 To: bug-make@gnu.org Subject: bug report : ERROR: dev-libs/lzo-2.06 failed (compile phase) Hi, I have a have a bug during the compile phase of my Funtoo GNU/Linux box. I was trying to emerge the 'boot-update' package, it seems there is a problem for compiling one of its dependency (lzo ).
