I have ran it a few times but it never wants to rebuild anything but
gcc, which has been a bug for over a year I think. I did unmask java
once and run revdep-rebuild and it wanted to rebuild OOo. That is all I
can remember having trouble with.

I use KDE and have a lot of packages installed and I seem to be having
better luck myself. I did used to just run -u world but that was when I
ran into trouble. I guess we have something different on our system.
