No, the problem wasn't that rebuilds weren't done (btw: this is not |
24 |
about @preserved-rebuilds, but about subslot dependencies), but that |
25 |
updates which would trigger such rebuilds are silently ignored. This |
26 |
happened to me yesterday while trying --backtrack=0. The available |
27 |
update to dev-haskell/parsec simply didn't show up (haskell ebuilds |
28 |
make heavy use of subslot deps), I only noticed this because I knew |
29 |
there was in fact an update available (thanks to eix-diff). Only after |
30 |
enabling backtracking Portage found the update. |

This might well be a bug, perhaps I'll examine the situation when I've |
33 |
got more time. |
