If you want to cope with poor package maintenance practices you might |
| 10 |
also need to scan the entire repository to find packages which had a |
| 11 |
dependency added after the package in question was installed. I |
| 12 |
forget if portage does this currently - I do remember this being the |
| 13 |
topic of a fair bit of debate a while back. I'm pretty sure failing |
| 14 |
to revbump when dependencies are changed is considered a QA issue for |
| 15 |
this reason. |
