Waiting for DISTCACHE lock... for 10 minutes

[Ion-Mihai IOnut Tetcu]

Hi,


About a week back my i386 tinderbox machine (SMP+PAE) crashed rather
badly.
After getting it up again I also made and installed new word and kernel.

Since then, it seems, for each port build, I'm seeing in
/usr/local/tinderbox/builds/4-STABLE-i386-myPT/make.0
a lot of:
INFO: Waiting for DISTCACHE lock...
for 10 minutes, after which it builds the port.

I'm using nullfs:
/usr/ports/distfiles on /usr/local/tinderbox/4-STABLE-i386-myPT/distcache (nullfs, local)
 /usr/local/tinderbox/portstrees/myPT/ports on /usr/local/tinderbox/4-STABLE-i386-myPT/a/ports (nullfs,local)
 /usr/local/tinderbox/jails/4 on /usr/local/tinderbox/4-STABLE-i386-myPT/usr/src (nullfs, local)
devfs on /usr/local/tinderbox/4-STABLE-i386-myPT/dev (devfs, local)
linprocfs on /usr/local/tinderbox/4-STABLE-i386-myPT/compat/linux/proc (linprocfs, local)
procfs on /usr/local/tinderbox/4-STABLE-i386-myPT/proc (procfs, local)

The ports are build via a script that invokes tindy as:
 ./tc addPort -b ${_build} -r -d ${PORT}
 ./tinderbuild -noduds -onceonly -nullfs -b ${_build} ${PORT}


Where should I start digging to fix this ? Why 10 minutes ? Could it be
some leftover from the crash or rather some of the changes in the OS
(the were a few commits related to *fs since the old kernel and the
current one).


Thanks,
