Hello~ Yesterday, I did update my gentoo like this. $ sudo emerge --update --deep --newuse world As a result, one of the updated package tiff said like this. * Messages for package media-libs/tiff-3.8.2-r5: * JBIG support is intended for Hylafax fax compression, so we * really need more feedback in other areas (most testing has * been done with fax). Be sure to recompile anything linked * against tiff if you rebuild it with jbig support. So I checked what package linked with libtiff(Actually, there is no need to do this. I just want to know). $ revdep-rebuild -p --library /usr/lib/libtiff.so.3 Then, revdep-rebuild display like this. [ebuild R ] media-libs/tiff-3.8.2-r5 [ebuild R ] media-gfx/imagemagick-6.4.3.5 [ebuild R ] media-libs/lcms-1.17 [ebuild U ] media-libs/vigra-1.6.0 [1.5.0-r1] [ebuild R ] net-print/cups-1.3.8-r1 [ebuild R ] x11-libs/gtk+-2.12.12 [ebuild R ] app-text/ghostscript-gpl-8.63 [ebuild R ] app-text/evince-2.22.2-r1 [ebuild R ] media-gfx/gthumb-2.10.9 As you can see, there is a package "vigra" with flag "U". As I know, U is need to update, and if I do emerge --update world, it will be update. But there is no "vigra" in result of "emerge -p --update world"(with --deep also). Of course, it still shows flag "U" if I do "emerge -p vigra" What is difference with emerge --update world and emerge vigra? And how can I update all new package without exceptions? If you know, please let me know.
