Hey, I like that Georgi.

I now have:
#!/bin/sh
# /usr/local/bin/kernel-deps
# list the ebuilds that depend on kernel version.
# suggested by Georgi Georgiev <chutz@×××.net>

for i in `grep -l ' /lib/modules/' /var/db/pkg/*/*/CONTENTS`; do
	ii=`dirname $i`;
	cat $ii/COUNTER || continue; echo " $ii";
done | sort -n | cut -f5,6 -d/ | sed -e 's/^/>=/'

I'm not sure what COUNTER does, but the "|| continue" skips files that 
don't have it.

The tail end of my build-kernel scripts now looks like this:
AUTOCLEAN="no" ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" kernel-deps | xargs emerge

...and it works a treat (getting over my misspelled "lm_sensors"

Thanks
