[bug-gettext] “distcheck -j” failure caused by ‘update-po’

[Ludovic Courtès]

Hello,

The problem I reported at
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gettext/2014-08/msg00004.html>
seems to be still present with Gettext 0.19.8.1.  Namely “make distcheck -j4”
occasionally fails in ‘update-po’ while trying to copy files.
Apparently that doesn’t happen with -j1.

The “DIST_DEPENDS_ON_UPDATE_PO = no” workaround that you suggested at
the time doesn’t seem to work.  ‘po/guix/Makefile.in’ still reads:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
dist distdir:
        $(MAKE) update-po
        @$(MAKE) dist2
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance,
Ludo’.
