Comment:

 I would guess this is happening because the genius Makefile was [source
 :macports-ports/gnome/genius/files/patch-src-
 makefile.diff?rev=e91c4b586a6f3bb3d8c2fda073c3e0f4944339cb patched] to add
 the flag `-Wl,-bundle_loader,genius` to `libtestplugin_la_LDFLAGS` which
 is used when building the `libtestplugin.so` target, but no `genius`
 dependency was added to the `libtestplugin.so` target. Therefore `make`
 didn't know that it needed to build `genius` before `libtestplugin.so`.
 Therefore, in your parallel build, it happened to start building
 `libtestplugin.so` before it had finished building `genius`, which is why
 `genius` was not found. If you repeat the build attempt without cleaning I
 suspect it will succeed.

 Mohamed, why did you add that patch? What problem does it solve? Is there
 an upstream bug report or pull request or commit URL associated with your
 patch?
