I use to build gcc with a command line such as make -j2 >& somelogfile & I recently found that if I logout, the build fails with perl: no user 501 Is this a bug or a feature? In the former case I'll open a PR. In the later is it documented somewhere that you should not logout while building gcc? If yes, is it possible to have a pointer? TIA Dominique
