IMHO this is a generic problem: when multiple slots exist, |
| 9 |
portage doesnt seem to know which slot/version of some lib a |
| 10 |
package was actually built against (that's also why we need |
| 11 |
things like revdep-rebuild). |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
A clean and generic solution would IMHO be if that information |
| 14 |
is recorded @ /var/db/pkg/*. In case of some depenency exists |
| 15 |
in different slots, the installed binary package record also |
| 16 |
contains a dependency to the lib's slot the package was |
| 17 |
actually built against. This way, old versions/slots still |
| 18 |
in use should never be uninstalled. |
| 19 |
|

In another pass we could scan for packages which could be |
| 21 |
rebuilt against a newer lib version, or maybe have it as |
| 22 |
an new emerge option (like --newuse for changed usedflags). |
