Not exactly the same thing, but the recent spidermonkey bump changed the lib from libjs.so to libmozjs.so. mediatomb kept finding the old libjs on rebuild. I had to uninstall mediatomb to dump the library and reinstall it. There's not much we can do about stuff like that, but it's not an uncommon occurrence. I usually run into a sticky preserved lib or two every couple months. I still think it's much better than the current portage 2.1 behavior which results in a broken mediatomb. I'll take the rare possibility of a symbol collision over a guaranteed broken package any day. -- fonts, gcc-porting, it makes no sense how it makes no sense toolchain, wxwidgets but i'll take it free anytime @ gentoo.org EFFD 380E 047A 4B51 D2BD C64F 8AA8 8346 F9A4 0662
