RE: [gentoo-dev] gcc and qt

["Riyad Kalla" <rsk@u.arizona.edu>]

Pieter,
Did you emerge QT 3.1.1 then reemerge the KDE libs? I don't know if this
is "overkill" but is it possible that would have fixed the situation?

I've seen quite a few people mention the surprise of emerging a new QT
lib, then having KDE break... I sort of assume this to happen since you
are changing the underlying lib, but maybe I am the one that is
mistaken.

I've done this so much now that I've not ever bothered to check if
emerge can detect this... i.e. I upgrade from 3.0 to 3.1 QT, does emerge
know that I should recompile my KDE libs? (base/lib, and annything else
important).

I wouldn't normally do this unless its required, as it takes so long :(,
so it would be great if emerge could suggest or warn me about it.

Any thoughts?
