Subject: [gentoo-user] Curious about order that emerge -u builds/installs

1 I've noticed something surprising (to me) about the order that 'emerge -auvND world'
2 decides to install/upgrade/reinstall packages. The situation is as follows:
3
4 * A large number of packages need to be build/installed/reinstalled
5 * Hit control-C during the build of package X
6 * Restart 'emerge -auvND world'
7
8 I expect that it will start by building package X and resume with the
9 remainder of the packages in the same order as before. Often it does
10 not. The order of package bilds often seems to be quite different
11 after the interruption than it was the first time -- often X is a fair
12 ways down the list.
13
14 Why is that?
