openldap hasn't compiled for me.. for... months now. I've emerge system -e ed quite a few times... and tried alternative useflags.. eitherway, I'm doing a lot of emerge --resume --skipfirst I want to be able to do: emerge world -uD --skipfirst and have it just not do the openldap package.... but it attempts to resume the last emerge command instead. (it implies --resume... which doesn't make sence)
--skipfirst is only intended for use with --resume. Find out why openldap won't build and fix it.
you probably have the ldap useflag set -- if you don't want ldap, unsetting that seems like a good idea.
