revdep-rebuild doesn't work like that. |
| 12 |
If a binary is dynamically linked to a library that doesn't exist anymore, the |
| 13 |
package owning the binary is rebuilt, as portage is unlikely to know what |
| 14 |
package supplied a file that doesn't exist. The idea being the package will |
| 15 |
find and link against libraries that do exist. |

In this case it would seem that revdep-rebuild should be trying to emerge: |

media-plugins/gst-plugins-oss |
