No, --keep-going allows to continue as long as possible after a |
19 |
build failure. Helmut asks about dependecies resolution failures, |
20 |
e.g. in some package REQUIRED_USE is not met, or circular |
21 |
dependency occurs and so on. |

AFAIK there is no way to use keep-going like option for deps |
24 |
resolution, because first error may trigger a lot of others and |
25 |
there will be inevitably false errors, because the dependency tree |
26 |
was not fully built. |
