Subject: Re: [gentoo-amd64] Interrupting portage gracefully
Date: Thu, 23 Nov 2006 16:54:53 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <7c08b4dd0611231654i14942091q77604ade34023afe@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I don't know if this helps, but I usually run emerge <package> && init
0 so it shuts off after it's finished (it would be nice if portage had
an --shutdownafter option, but oh well). The only problem is that if
there's an error in portage it won't shut down. Other than that, try
replacing the fan. (Of course if you have a laptop, then that idea's
out the window).
