I “circumvent” those questions by doing: emerge -pveD world > worldlist emerge -1O $(cat worldlist) If the system for whatever reason fails and I need to interrupt the merge, I simply remove the lines from worldlist that have already been built and then repeat the last command. Plus I can exclude some packages that don’t need a rebuild: -bins, -docs, virtuals, most perl and tex packages and so on. This saves a bit of time on the slower laptop. -- Gruß | Greetings | Qapla’ Please do not share anything from, with or about me on any social network. This is a lousy party!
