I was running emerge -e world, but it stopped because of expect failing, then, I run "emerge --skipfirst" but, as seen in emerge.log, other packages were skipped (maybe because they depend on expect). I think that I saw "something" at first in emerge output, but it got lost quickly just after full packages list covered by console window. 1238886218: >>> emerge (1 of 125) dev-tcltk/expect-5.42.1-r1 to / 1238886220: === (1 of 125) Cleaning (dev-tcltk/expect-5.42.1-r1::/usr/portage/dev-tcltk/expect/expect-5.42.1-r1.ebuild) 1238886220: === (1 of 125) Compiling/Merging (dev-tcltk/expect-5.42.1-r1::/usr/portage/dev-tcltk/expect/expect-5.42.1-r1.ebuild) 1238886222: *** terminating. 1238886229: Started emerge on: Apr 05, 2009 01:03:49 1238886229: *** emerge --skipfirst --resume 1238886237: *** Resuming merge... 1238886237: >>> emerge (1 of 121) x11-proto/renderproto-0.9.2 to / 1238886238: >>> emerge (2 of 121) x11-proto/randrproto-1.2.1 to / 1238886238: >>> emerge (3 of 121) x11-libs/libSM-1.0.3 to / As you can see, other 3 packages were skipped, but I don't know which one I think that skipped packages list should be shown at end for having for time to read it.

You might want to try --keep-going since that should list all of the skipped packages. The --skipfirst option is considered to be sort of a "legacy" option now that --keep-going is available. Also, note that --skip-first has specially issues (bug #247106) when using --jobs for parallel builds.
With --keep-going I hit other problem: bug 264806 But thanks for the tip
Pacho, is this bug still relevant with recent portage versions? If not, please close it. Thanks
It's nice now :D # emerge --skipfirst These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done! !!! One or more packages have been dropped due to !!! masking or unsatisfied dependencies: (dev-python/chaco-4.5.0:0/0::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) requires >=dev-python/enable-4.4.0[python_targets_python2_7(-),-python_single_target_python2_7(-)], >=dev-python/enable-4.4.0[python_targets_python2_7(-),-python_single_target_python2_7(-)] emerge: It seems we have nothing to resume... Thanks
