Description Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2009-04-03 22:14:35 UTC
I have suffered this problem:
1. emerge -e system
2. A package failed, then, a lot of others were skipped
3. Just after all emerge -e system ends, I tried to run emerge --resume, but it was unable to resume packages skipped previously. Then, I needed to check /var/log/portage/elog/summary.log for re-emerging skipped packages manually

Thanks :-)

Comment 1 Zac Medico gentoo-dev 2021-02-22 01:25:46 UTC
Yes, there is no way to automatically resume skipped packages. Maybe something based on timestamps could work well.
Comment 2 Nikita Zlobin 2022-09-09 05:24:55 UTC
Resume list change may happen due to dependency check on resume, which may be inhibited by --resume --nodeps combo.

And though I did not yet have chance to check, this also has chance to prevent unexpected list reordering and skips (also good side - I suspect you probably could write arbitrary merge sequence in /var/cache/edb/mtimedb without worrying about list invalidity).
