I uploaded my script for finding reverse dependencies here: |

Advantages over existing solutions (browsing to websites like tinderbox |
5 |
or qa-reports): |

|

- only prints stable packages when run on a stable system (no need to |
8 |
manually filter out things) |
9 |
- takes a list of packages as input, making it more effective for a |
10 |
batch workflow (we're short on time, batching is often critical) |
11 |
- produces output that can be fed to emerge after stripping comment |
12 |
lines (no junk after package names); again this is for the batch workflow |
13 |
|
14 |
It is still reasonably fast. On my machine it completes within 30 seconds. |

Comments welcome. I'd be very happy to adapt this to your needs. My main |
17 |
goal is to share those little scripts I use with others so we can all |
18 |
become more productive (and have more time for other things). |
