    AFAIR creating a file (adding an entry to a dir's list) is an atomic operation so that problem also is solved.-------- Original Message --------On 11/6/24 18:39, whiteman808 <[email protected]> wrote:> What in case when two lock files

    What in case when two lock files are being created at the same time? How
    can I prevent in this case emerge fail?

    portage uses a lockfile for every download, so the problem does not exist.

    Have you actually experienced this type of failure?

    Or are you just thinking about worst case?

    I've been sharing distfiles between multiple systems over NFS for years
    and not had a problem. Granted, usually the systems aren't emerging at
    the same time.
