I have ran it a few times but it never wants to rebuild anything but |
15 |
gcc, which has been a bug for over a year I think. I did unmask java |
16 |
once and run revdep-rebuild and it wanted to rebuild OOo. That is all I |
17 |
can remember having trouble with. |

I use KDE and have a lot of packages installed and I seem to be having |
33 |
better luck myself. I did used to just run -u world but that was when I |
34 |
ran into trouble. I guess we have something different on our system. |
