Bugzilla Bug 156793

I think some dependencies are missing in some of the ebuilds. After doing a
"emerge --sync", "emerge -avtDNu world" and "emerge --depclean", then a "emerge
-avtDNu world" again (to be absolutely certain) I did a revdep-rebuild, and it
turned out the following:

=================================================================

It says "is consistent" but it doens't look that way to me... so, then, I treid
finding where these missing files could come from, and after emerging
"app-admin/gamin" (libfam.la) and "media-video/mjpegtools" (libmjpegutils.la)
it was reduced to this:

=================================================================

I couldn't find any libxmms.la though. In fact, I couldn't even find any xmms
at all...

Anyhow... at least "app-admin/gamin" and "media-video/mjpegtools" appears to be
required for some ebuilds, but aren't... please fix this.

And here's "emerge --info" for you, in case you need it:

You have stale orphaned .la files which need to be deleted. Nothing
revdep-rebuild could do here.
