Can I run two (or more) simultaneous instances of emerge? Would this create any consistency problems or is the Portage system smart enough to synchronize its accounting?
Also, is there a difference in specifying a package name by its fully-qualified name as opposed to just the package name? In other words, is there any difference between the following: emerge net-www/mozilla-firebird emerge mozilla-firebird If not, why would you ever use one over the other (unless two or more packages had the same name)?
