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. |

14 |
Why is that? |
