Actually, this is perfect too. I just had a system crash during my emerge and when I rebooted `emerge --resume` said there was nothing to resume again. pye is a real life saver for something like this. I just told it to emerge packages 204-536 instead of having to recompile those first 204 packages all over again. My only gripe about pye is that it doesn't provide a count down like emerge --resume.
