emerge -e --keep-going @world package fails and resume

[antonellocaroli]

if during the execution of "merge -e --keep-going @world", the compilation fails, how is the resume done?

"emerge --resume --skipfirst" doesn't seem to work.

You sadly can't do an --resume after -e @world fails. That's why keep-going is used. You can manually rebuild the failed packages afterwards, portage will throw a list at you. :)
