I've had similar happen to me on a few occasions. |
| 9 |
The first time when it didn't do anything in quite a while (minute or two) I |
| 10 |
re-ran the same command with debug (and possible under strace). Emerge would |
| 11 |
do its stuff then print "set +x" and hang. |
| 12 |
I think I eventually tracked it down to waiting on random data. |
| 13 |
Try copying some data in or out of the machine, preferable over a |
| 14 |
non-encrypted medium, or some fairly heavy disk i/o (emerge sync, emerge |
| 15 |
metadata, du -s), if you're logged in locally to the machine bash the |
| 16 |
keyboard and move the mouse a lot, to generate some entropy while waiting for |
| 17 |
emerge to do something. |
