I believe the old library appears to be owned by the new version |
| 41 |
because it is "preserved". Once you run the revdep-rebuild command, |
| 42 |
everything should link to the new linker name and you should be safe |
| 43 |
to remove the old library. See the functions preserve_old_lib{_notify} |
| 44 |
in eutils eclass for more details and the "preserve-libs" option for |
| 45 |
the FEATURES variable in make.conf. |
