Which will be counterproductive if the reason the compile failed is because
RAM was exhausted and you need to reduce the job number. Could I define

It hasn't been mentioned, but if the main use case is to have more than one

so much memory they cumulatively use up all RAM available and then start
swapping endlessly until the compilation invariably fails. Increasingly more
and more packages have been suffering from this, the last two I noticed are
qtwebkit and qtwebengine.
My solution has been to create a package.env file in which I specify MAKEOPTS
limiting the number of jobs and average load for any of these packages which
chew up all the RAM.

stallation succeeded without an ef02 partition, but a
grub package update would not proceed without it? Where did the Mint
installer store the grub core image to be able to continue with the
installation?

I am not familiar with dhclient, although whenever I used it in various
distros it just worked. Have you tried using dhcpcd instead?

Many an installation were hosed lately because of a GRUB problem in Mint and
potentially *buntu. Testing before releasing was not as thorough as

I can't recall if you mentioned any differences in the kernel versions and
their configs between Gentoo and Mint?
Have you compared the strace outputs between Gentoo and Mint too to see if

tion. You may want
to take a look at xset and in particular 'xset +c' to switch on the keyboard

Any idea when the incompatible package ebuilds will be sorted out on the

This is odd. Why would a verification of portage include the distfiles, when
the latter are checked before they are unpacked as a package is being emerged.

hashes. I have not seen .umd5sum files before, any idea what type
of hashes these are?
PPS. Given md5 collisions are known and md5 is considered completely broken,
