Hello,

I am trying to build Sage on WSL by following the instructions at

However, at Step 14 (typing 'make'), the build fails at the first package.

[spkg-build] make[5]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

As advised by the builder, I am sending you the log files.
Thank you in advance,

Izumi

Hi,
please give more details about your WSL environment. It appears from the log that you are trying to use Conda for this.

This is described in some details here:
