Hey, |
2 |
|
3 |
I'm not exactly new to portage, but one thing that I cannot seem to figure |
4 |
out is how to rebuild all dependants of a package. Not *dependencies*, |
5 |
dependants: packages that require said package. |
6 |
|
7 |
As a recent example: whenever go (the language) is updated to a new version |
8 |
(say from 1.9 to 1.10, as it happended recently), I'd like to rebuild docker |
9 |
& friends - or more specifically 'things that are compiled with go'. |
10 |
|
11 |
The --changed-deps option doesn't seem to do the trick, so instead I manually |
12 |
do a -vp --depclean on go and manually --oneshot all installed packages that |
13 |
have their hands on it. This is obviously stupid and error-prone. |
14 |
|
15 |
Am I missing something or is this really not easily possible? |
16 |
Basically I'm looking for a hard --oneshot --revdep-rebuild with a package |
17 |
argument. |
