You may want to add a -p behind that --depclean at first. Just to make |
24 |
sure it doesn't remove something you want to keep. I usually even put a |
25 |
-p on the end of revdep-rebuild just to be safe. Mine always wants to |
26 |
rebuild gcc when it doesn't need it. It's a known "feature". ;-) |

As for the time it takes, it depends on what all packages have been |
29 |
updated. If it has been a while, then it will take a while to do them |
30 |
all. If there has been a major upgrade to gcc, then it will certainly |
31 |
take a while. |
