I found that the "problem" was .la files where the library does NOT link |
| 21 |
in libpng but the .la file contains png14. Neither revdep-rebuild nor |
| 22 |
'emerge @preserver-rebuild' caught these and I had to manually identify |
| 23 |
and re-emerge the packages whose .la files referenced png14. |
