1 Hello list,
2
3 As part of the final stage of a long upgrade from profile 2005.1 to
4 2006.1, I get many messages from revdep-rebuild of broken links to files
5 that are not part of any installed package but were in the past. For
6 instance:
7
8
9 broken /usr/lib/ImageMagick-6.1.8/modules-Q16/coders/art.la (requires
10 /-lstdc++)
11
12
13 As part of World, imagemagick-6.3.0.5-r1 is now installed and the file
14 art.la is found at
15
16 /usr/lib/ImageMagick-6.3.0/modules-Q16/coders/art.la
17
18 Also the libstdc++ installation status is:

20 ->emerge --search stdc++

42 I also run revdep-rebuild twice as suggested by the final message after
43 running the first time but still the broken link messages continue to
44 appear.
45
46 Any thoughts on how to obtain a clean revdep-rebuild run?

48 Thanks,
