Hi! |

Yes you can do multiple emerge's at the same time. It's not a good idea |
| 12 |
if both emerges requires you to emerge the same dependency but otherwise |
| 13 |
there shouldn't be no problems. |

Since we don't use a database-file (we store the installed packages |
| 16 |
directly on the filesystem) there are no locking involved. When doing |
| 17 |
much job (like this weekend :) I usually emerge three-four packages at |
| 18 |
the same time. |
