Try adding '&' to your first line to start it as a background process. I |
12 |
did this for months. MAKE SURE emerge --info SHOWS THAT YOU ARE USING THE |
13 |
DISTLOCKS FEATURE. |

It's a separate process instead of a separate thread, but it should do what |
16 |
you want. You may also want to throw a '> /dev/null 2>&-' before the '&', |
17 |
but that depends on your sensibilities. |
