6 I had to uninstall a several dozen packages before revep-rebuild would
7 work. After libpng updated, revdep-rebuild choked becuase emerge was
8 unable to determine the order to rebuild packages. After 2-3 hours of
9 unstalling, revdep rebuild finally ran, and then there were several
10 more hours of reinstalling XFCE, gtk, and so on. I finally got things
11 going again, but it wasn't fun.
