Hi, I am experimenting with building Sage in a Debian unstable chroot and have a hard time figuring out why parallel doctesting does not work. I wonder if it has something to do with the chroot. I already run into the problem that /dev/shm was not user-writable and fixed that. The script from [1] now runs without error so /dev/pts should also be in place.
When I run the test suite in parallel it ends up in the "while True" loop of parallel_dispatch() in src/sage/doctest/forker.py as intended, however top shows that no processes are using any CPU. When I run ./sage -tp 1 --long --all parallel_dispatch() is also used but now everything works. Any ideas what about the chroot could cause this or how I can find out more? Parallel building works in the chroot by the way.
