You would, of course want this command to be nice to dependencies, otherwise you'll break something. I've often wondered about such a feature during emerge world. Especially when it breaks in the first few packages. In a case like this (indent showing dependencies): pkg-a pkg-b pkg-c pkg-d emerge would build in the order pkg-b pkg-a pkg-d pkg-c. If emerge fails during pkg-b, whats to stop it continuing at pkg-d and then pkg-c? cya, -- Iain Buchanan <iaindb at netspace dot net dot au> Never trust anyone who says money is no object. -- [email protected] mailing list
