I was partially responding to dolsen's comment that it wasn't capable, |

as well as a discussion I had with somebody on the ChromeOS team a few |

In the ChromeOS case, if a library was removed off the system, but |
| 16 |
Portage still thought it was there, and you went to install a binpkg |
| 17 |
that had an ELF dependency on the removed library, you'd have broken |
| 18 |
binaries on the system. |
