I don't know what icedove is, but what you need is not to reply to anything but to start a new message. Changing titles does not start a new thread, nor should it. Ask yourself: what is the difference between a /new/ message and a /reply/ to another message? You should be able just to click on the list address in any email from the list; that will start a new thread. -- Rgds Peter.

Sorry for this trivial question ;) Use emerge --resume --skipfirst to continue where you were, skipping this package. Or simply emerge --keep-going package, this will continue automatically even if a package fails. To compile the package that faileed, there is often a bug report on bugs.gentoo.org already. Just google for the error message, and if you're lucky, you will find the solution. If not, just open a new bug report :) Oh, and please open a new thread the next time. This one appears under the openrc thread. Wonko

Hi Jose and welcome to Gentoo, check out man emerge and some useful parameters like --skip-first, --resume and --keep-going. Have Fun -- David Abbott (dabbott)

Hi Jose, Please don't hijack threads. Previous discussion explanation: http://www.mail-archive.com/gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org/msg71515.html On 13 Jun 2010, at 18:32, Jose Juan Montiel wrote: yesterday i finally decide to try Gentoo (I came from debian). I follow all step of http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoo-x86-quickinstall.xml The quick install guide is for users who are already experienced with Gentoo. With a Debian background, you'll probably be fine, but you might find it worth keeping the full install guide handy. but when i finally go to install gnome... in the latests package (mailclient or something similar) fail... Have you rebooted the system yet? Don't bother about installing Gnome until you've done so. Be absolutely minimal in your steps, if they're not directly related to having a working system. A DE is eyecandy - just get the disks prepared, the files copied, the kernel installed and the bootloader going. When the system boots for the first time to a plain console you can then log in as root and add ~jose, cron, syslog, GUI (although you'll probably want to install GNU screen a little bit earlier). I would like to know how to skip a failed package of metapackage gnome... or how to update to other version (2.28 - 2.30)... Once you have the system booting you'll be able to copy paste the full output of the error. Note that most install CDs also offer SSH, if you have another, fully-working system. Stroller.
