Subject: [gentoo-user] --jobs is ignored for unmerging?

1 I recently needed to unmerge Netbeans and KDE from a machine. So removed
2 the top-level packages of those, and then ran:
3
4 emerge -a --depclean --jobs 20
5
6 However, "--jobs" is being ignored. So I'm sitting there, watching
7 hundreds of packages being unmerged one by one, taking a long time :-/
8
9 Is this normal? Shouldn't the --jobs option result in emerge unmerging
10 multiple packages at the same time?
