I ran into this the other day. It doesn't like the -a or --ask option. |

|
| 21 |
root@smoker / # revdep-rebuild -i --ask |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Encountered unrecognized option --ask. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
revdep-rebuild no longer automatically passes unrecognized options to |
| 26 |
portage. |
| 27 |
Separate emerge-only options from revdep-rebuild options with the -- flag. |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
For example, revdep-rebuild -v -- --ask |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
See the man page or revdep-rebuild -h for more detail. |

Looks like it needs a little extra code. The -p option works tho. |
