Why can't ebuilds like icu be made like openssl or openldap where the |
| 20 |
libs are not replaced, but old libs stay and a text is displayed to use |
| 21 |
redep-rebuild and afterwards rm the old libs? |
| 22 |

That way software doesn't suddenly brake until you reemerge half your |
| 24 |
desktop/servers (only to reemerge everything again the next day, because |
| 25 |
that lib gets suddenly masked). |

I like the behavior of openldap and openssl, I'd like to have that for |
| 28 |
gfx-libs that brake the desktop (like icu) too. |
