The important part is the "broken blah (requires blah blah blah)" lines. |

It's stupid. :) Its great at detecting broken linkage, lousy at fixing |
| 18 |
it. I NEVER allow revdep-rebuild to rebuild ANYTHING. If I think the |
| 19 |
"broken ..." actually match the list of packages, I'll emerge them |
| 20 |
manually with --update. |

Much less hassle that way. |
