As I mentioned on IRC, I think this isn't a very general use case (given |
14 |
the existence of --resume, --keep-going, etc.) so code to accomplish it |
15 |
would be better put into a custom portage bashrc than into portage |
16 |
proper. |

ISTR that you could no longer resume for some reason. Perhaps what you |
19 |
really wanted was a way to save the resume list across multiple emerges? |
