Hey All, |

How does emerge handle dependencies (if it does). |

The reason I asked comes from just issuing an "emerge clean" to wipe out |
| 10 |
old versions of software that have a more recent install. Well, libpng |
| 11 |
was updated recently, but my install of KDE (3.0-r1) was linked against |
| 12 |
libpng-1.2.1-r1 (but was upgraded to 1.2.3). The fix was simple to |
| 13 |
reinstall the older libpng, but I wonder if emerge could have detected |
| 14 |
this. |

I see that /var/db/pkg/kde-base/kdebase-3.0-r3/RDEPEND has a list of |
| 19 |
basic dependencies, but is it possible to get a bit more refined? Or is |
| 20 |
this too cumbersome? |

BTW: To the development. Right on for a most excellent implementation |
| 25 |
of a Linux distribution. Keep up the great work! |
