Yes, I've seen it and I've also seen that it is a very old bug that for |
| 20 |
whatever reason remains unfixed. What I do is to run revdep-rebuild |
| 21 |
with the -p flag and hand edit the *.la files it finds to show the |
| 22 |
correct path for libgij and libgcj, which are the two that are |
| 23 |
perpetually broken on my system. Then on the next run of revdep-rebuild |
| 24 |
(again with the -p) it no longer complains about those files. Not an |
| 25 |
emerge solution as you asked about, but one that works anyway. |
