You might wish to try emerge's -N (--newuse) flag as well, along with -D |
| 18 |
(--deep). I use these by default, so all updates remerge anything with |
| 19 |
new USE flags, and update all the way down the dependency stack. |

|
| 21 |
Note that this will give you more updates to do (so try -p or -a first), |
| 22 |
thus it's an option, but it does seem to help keep the bugs away. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Also, either routinely, or every time you have a bug not resolved |
| 25 |
elsewise, try running revdep-rebuild, again with the -a or -p first, |
| 26 |
especially if you don't run it regularly. FWIW, I run it after every |
| 27 |
update, so not so many rebuilds get a chance to build up. |
