and are you doing revdep-rebuilt afterwards? |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Last time gwenviev and kipi stuff broke, krita broke and some other stuff. |
| 23 |
Krita did not emerge because of some changed symbols, so I had to reemerge |
| 24 |
koffice-libs - something revdep-rebuild did not catch. It catches changed |
| 25 |
versions, but if a lib is recompiled because of an -r update and there are |
| 26 |
symbol problems, revdep will not see them... |
| 27 |
I had to rebuild kdepim and a lot of other stuff, just because of that -D |
| 28 |
update. It sucks to have to revdep-rebuild a douzend packages. It suckes even |
| 29 |
more when half of them fail because of some symbols and you have to reemerge |
| 30 |
three or four additional libs, so you can't just let it run unattended... |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
In my years of gentoo, -D always caused problems and was almost never worth |
| 33 |
the trouble. |
