+                    on the host development system. 
+                    Because the build system needs to account for parallelism
+                    during the build, concurrently running processes might require
+                    attention (e.g. build cannot resove a patch).
+                    For such a case, the host system needs to spawn and launch
+                    an interactive shell.
