Re: [gentoo-user] stop an emerge (compilation), halt the PC, boot and continue the emerge
Zitat von Hogren: But, when I boot up again the PC and I «emerge --resume», it restart the compilation process. Is there a way to not restart the compilation process ? Take a look at Tux on Ice, this should do the trick for you.

Usually what I'll do is ctrl-z which pauses emerge, and then I'll run pm-suspend to put the machine to sleep. After I turn it back on again I'll issue fg and emerge will resume. The --resume flag just attempts to continue a failed emerge list.

[gentoo-user] stop an emerge (compilation), halt the PC, boot and continue the emerge
Hello !! I have a little question about portage. There are many big softwares like Firefox, LibreOffice. At a certain moment, I need to stop the compilation to halt the PC. But, when I boot up again the PC and I «emerge --resume», it restart the compilation process. Is there a way to not restart the compilation process ? I think that if I enter in the temp directory and I type «make && make install», it will install the software but it will not update portage database. Thank you for your response ! Bye Hogren
