[gentoo-catalyst] How to do a revdep-rebuild after readline installation

[Andreas Rueckert]

Hi!

I'd like to create a LiveCD with KDE including certmanager. It requires 
libhistory.so.4, which is outdated. The current baselayout requires readline 
5.x which includes libhistory.so.5.
See:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=131992
So Jakub wants me to start revdep-rebuild after the readline installation. But 
how to tell Catalyst to do so?

TIA,
Andreas

You don't.  A least, you cannot do it until the fsscript runs in
livecd-stage2 without making modifications to catalyst itself, which
really shouldn't be that hard.

The *simplest* way would be for you to rebuild all of the stages with a
newer snapshot so that the newer readline is pulled in from the
beginning.
