I then thought on running revdep-rebuild --library libglitz-glx.so.1 BEFORE removing glitz (to prevent breakage), but later I remembered it wouldn't work as rebuilt packages would link again against libglitz-glx.so.1. Then, my idea would the following: Would be nice if I could tell portage to make compilation think libglitz-glx.so.1 is not present in real system (maybe sandbox could prevent its readability inside build environment), and then, I could run "revdep-rebuild --library libglitz-glx.so.1" before removing glitz and affected apps would not link to it, allowing me to safely remove glitz later without having had a broken system at any time. What do you think?
