Note that says parallel-fetch not build. From the man page: |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
parallel-fetch: Fetch in the background while compiling. Run `tail -f |
| 45 |
/var/log/emerge-fetch.log` in a terminal to view parallel-fetch progress. |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
What you are thinking about is --jobs, or -j. From the man page: |
| 48 |
|
| 49 |
-j [JOBS], --jobs[=JOBS] |
| 50 |
Specifies the number of packages to build simultaneously. If this option |
| 51 |
is given without an argument, emerge will not limit the number of jobs |
| 52 |
that can run simultaneously. Also see the related --load-average option. |
| 53 |
Similarly to the --quiet-build option, the --jobs option causes all |
| 54 |
build output to be redirected to logs. Note that interactive packages |
| 55 |
currently force a setting of --jobs=1. This issue can be temporarily |
| 56 |
avoided by specifying --accept-properties=-interactive. |
| 57 |
|
| 58 |
The setting of parallel-fetch should do exactly what you want done. |
