Description PM 2009-08-10 23:35:33 UTC 
--keep-going is a very useful feature, I and (I hope) many others use it often when upgrading the system. I think it would save people a lot of typing if it could be set once and for all in make.conf in FEATURES.

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Thomas Sachau gentoo-dev 2009-08-10 23:43:31 UTC 
You can already set it in /etc/make.conf:
EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS="--keep-going"
Comment 2 Zac Medico gentoo-dev 2009-08-11 01:43:45 UTC 
Yeah, there's no point in adding this to FEATURES since that's what EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS is for. However, we can add support for --keep-going=n in case you want to disable it on the commandline.

ups. Sorry, didn't know about this EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS.

Thanks ;)
