Not that easy, |
| 33 |
revdep-rebuild doesn't work either (dev-db/knoda is missing only in |
| 34 |
kde-sunset) |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
By the way, revdep-rebuild re-emerges many too many packages, |
| 37 |
since it re-emerges all packages which depend only indirectly on |
| 38 |
the missing library. |
| 39 |
Furthermore the libraries are not missing since the have been kept |
| 40 |
by emerge ( => set preserved-rebuild) |

Thanks, |
