Because using --with-bdeps y causes unnecessary compilation of packages |
| 8 |
that don't need t0 be changed. They won't be used again until the |
| 9 |
dependent package is updated, so why waste time rebuilding them in the |
| 10 |
interim? |

No one really gets "burned" by this, they just wonder why installed |
| 13 |
packages aren't upgraded, nothing stops working. |
