Portage does not directly support resuming an individual package. My suggestion: openoffice-bin. pgpQCNViJbWBC.pgp Description: PGP signature

You could do something like this: # ebuild ".ebuild" compile install qmerge Probably it does a ./configure again, but even so, afterwards it continues almost exactly where the emerge-process stopped. Maybe you get some problems with dependencies, but dealing with an emerge of a single package this should work. Sigi -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

To resume an emerge, I normally do as follows: 1-go to /var/tmp/portage//work/ 2-"make" 3-after make completes, I call ebuild directly passing 'install' as argument, and then qmerge. However, I don't know why (and haven't bothered to discover), mas sometimes this works, sometimes it doesn't. I guess there's something in control files to tell portage in which stage it stopped. -- Bruno Lustosa, aka Lofofora | Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Network Administrator/Web Programmer | ICQ: 1406477 Rio de Janeiro - Brazil | -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

[gentoo-user] Openoffice: emerge --resume
Just checking if I'm missing something. I resumed a merge that ran over night and it appears to start from the beginning again. As this merge won't complete in the 10 hrs I give it, is there some other trick I can play? If not, I'll just do this on the weekend. I can let it run for 3 days. --Kurt -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
