I am finally moving my production machine the the 17.0 profile.
Currently running is

      emerge -e --keep-going @world

So far there is one failure (libcryptui, the fix is easy).

Am I correct that when the above emerge completes, I should run
simply

      emerge --resume

If the emerge has completed, there is nothing to resume. Just make a note
of the packages that failed to build ans emerge --oneshot them, with any
necessary fixes.



You may also want to check for dependencies (as in: `equery depends
<package>` and rebuild the dependencies of the failed package as well.

I don't understand.  If the dependencies didn't fail, why should I
rebuild them?

thanks,

If you're transitioning over to the new profile, that means the dependencies would be built and linked to the old profile's binaries. This was merely a suggestion, as I've had some mighty strange things happen after upgrades to gcc in the past, all solved by `emerge -e world`, although... I didn't have packages fail back then.

When I switched over to the 17 profile I had one rebuild failure, and it didn't have any direct dependencies fail.
