Thanks. Running that gives surprising and unexpected results. I'm now
curious what changed-deps really does, and the man page is terse on this.
I would have thought portage already does that automatically, but I see
a difference. If a package's deps change, but everything is still
satisfied, portage will do nothing. Does @changed-deps rebuild
everything that changed anyway, regardless is portage thinks it still OK?
Also, these two similar commands return different results (I have
bdeps=y in DEFAULT_OPTS btw):
emerge -uND --changed-deps=y world (51 packages)
emerge @changed-deps (11 packages)
Do you know why those commands give different results?
The smaller list is a strict subset of the longer one.
