1 I don't know if this topic has been brought up before (probably) but then I'll
2 bring it up again :)

4 After upgrading to alsa-0.9 from alsa-0.5, all apps that linked to alsa-0.5
5 broke so I had to reinstall them.. That includes libsdl, mplayer and more..
6
7 IMO "emerge alsa" should know what apps it breaks and reinstall them when
8 emerging... For example
9
10 # emerge --pretend alsa
11 [ebuild U] media-sound/alsa-driver-0.9.0_rc1-r5 to /
12 (and the other alsa packages)
13 [ebuild R ] media-sound/esound-0.2.26 to /
14 [ebuild R ] media-libs/libsdl-1.2.4-r2 to /
15 [ebuild R ] media-video/mplayer-0.90_pre3-r1 to /
16
17
18 Or maybe "emerge -c" should do it instead, because it is when "cleaning up"
19 that the old apps start to fail...
