To resume an emerge, I normally do as follows: 1-go to /var/tmp/portage/<package>/work/<package> 2-"make" 3-after make completes, I call ebuild directly passing 'install' as argument, and then qmerge. However, I don't know why (and haven't bothered to discover), mas sometimes this works, sometimes it doesn't. I guess there's something in control files to tell portage in which stage it stopped. -- Bruno Lustosa, aka Lofofora | Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Network Administrator/Web Programmer | ICQ: 1406477 Rio de Janeiro - Brazil | -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
