After a recent emerge -DuN world, messages for one of the packages stated |
| 2 |
that it was necessary to run revdep-rebuild after emerging the package, so I |
| 3 |
did. The revdep-rebuild ended up merging six packages, with one of them |
| 4 |
being gcc. Emerging all six packages took several hours, and I noticed that |
| 5 |
gcc by itself took a significant amount of time. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
The final message stated that I could re-run revdep-rebuild to verify that |
| 8 |
all inconsistencies had been resolved, unfortunately, I did not add a -p to |
| 9 |
the command and to my surprise it spent the next couple of hours or so |
| 10 |
emerging gcc again. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
After that finished, I again ran revdep-rebuild although this time with a -p |
| 13 |
and below is the output: |

Now you can remove -p (or --pretend) from arguments and re-run |
| 51 |
revdep-rebuild. |

It wants to build gcc again. I don't want to have to build gcc every time I |
| 55 |
need to use revdep-rebuild. The final message from revdep-rebuild is: |
| 56 |
|

Build finished correctly. Removing temporary files... |
| 59 |
You can re-run revdep-rebuild to verify that all libraries and binaries |
| 60 |
are fixed. If some inconsistency remains, it can be orphaned file, deep |
| 61 |
dependency, binary package or specially evaluated library. |

How do I determine if this is a case of "orphaned file, deep dependency, |
| 65 |
binary package or specially evaluated library" and, if it is one of those, |
| 66 |
how do I determine which one, and then how do I fix this...? |

Thanks for listening, |
