That is because the ebuilds install a file in /etc/revdep-rebuild that |
| 7 |
instruct revdep-rebuild to mask the appropriate directories. |

|
| 9 |
Quoting from "man revdep-rebuild" |

CONFIGURATION |
| 12 |
revdep-rebuild no longer uses hardcoded paths. To change the default behavior the following variables can be |
| 13 |
changed by the user. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
SEARCH_DIRS - List of directories to search for executables and libraries |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
SEARCH_DIRS_MASK - List of directories to not search |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
These variables can be prepended to either by setting the variable in your environment prior to execution, by |
| 20 |
placing an entry in /etc/make.conf, or by placing a file in /etc/revdep-rebuild containing the appropriate |
| 21 |
variables. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
The variables are read and set in the following order: |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
environment settings - one time changes by user |
| 26 |
/etc/make.conf - persistant changes by user |
| 27 |
/etc/revdep-rebuild/* - persistant changes by ebuild authors |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
While a user can edit and modify the files in the /etc/revdep-rebuild directory, please be aware that the |
| 30 |
/etc/revdep-rebuild directory is not under configuration protection and files can be removed and/or overwritten |
| 31 |
by an ebuild. To change this add /etc/revdep-rebuild to the CONFIG_PROTECT variable in /etc/make.conf. |
