Or simply emerge --keep-going , this will continue automatically even if a package fails. To compile the package that faileed, there is often a bug report on bugs.gentoo.org already. Just google for the error message, and if you're lucky, you will find the solution. If not, just open a new bug report :) Oh, and please open a new thread the next time. This one appears under the openrc thread. Wonko
