is there some resume support for Yaourt

Pacman has resume support but when installing packages from AUR with yaourt, if you interrupted it and then tried to install it again it will start from the beginning. 

I want it to resume whether it stopped in the download phase or in the make phase, I know that make has resume support, I checked man yaourtrc, it doesn't say anything about this.
So is there a package or a configuration for Yaourt to make it resume ?

Nope, that is just how makepkg and yaourt work. Makepkg will reuse already downloaded sources though

Yaourt most likely cleans up after makepkg, so that could be the culprit. Try using makepkg directly and see how that goes.

makepkg does resume, yaourt doesn't , I guess you're right, I guess it does clean the packages(and man yaourtrc doesn't show any option to make it not clean sad ).

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?

well setting DEVELSRCDIR to for example /var/aurcache didn't make resume after download sad .
