5 Re: the guide above.

7 It says to run
8
9 # revdep-rebuild --library libstdc++.so.5 -- -pv
10 # revdep-rebuild --library libstdc++.so.5
11
12 However, revdep-rebuild only recognizes "-p" when rebuilding (it does
13 not recognize -pv for pretend) and it will delete the /root/.revdep*
14 files upon completion of the "-pv" command. The downside is that
15 revdep-rebuild will need to search for the matching binaries *twice* if
16 a user follows the above guide.
17
18 Compare the output of:
19
20 # revdep-rebuild --library libstdc++.so.5 -- -pv
21
22 ... <snip> ...
23 Total size of downloads: 0 kB
24 Build finished correctly. Removing temporary files... ..........
25 You can re-run revdep-rebuild to verify that all libraries and binaries
26 are fixed. If some inconsistency remains, it can be orphaned file, deep
27 dependency, binary package or specially evaluated library.
28
29 And...
30
31 # revdep-rebuild --library libstdc++.so.5 -- -p -v
32
33 ... <snip> ...
34 Total size of downloads: 0 kB
35 Now you can remove -p (or --pretend) from arguments and re-run revdep-rebuild.
