Reproducable. This is a fresh 2006.1 build. I set much more detailed USE flags (see below) after initial setup, so I ran emerge --deep --newuse world, then revdep-rebuild. Even after clearing the $HOME/.revdep* files, revdep-rebuild consistently continued to show gcc as requiring a rebuild due to two missing files: /usr/lib/lib-gnu-java-awt-peer-gtk.la /usr/lib/libgjc.la These files are not located in /usr/lib; they're located in /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.1.1/ and do not appear to be able to be located. I'm guessing that a developer may have a LD_LIBRARY_PATH defined that's not part of my environment (and isn't documented as required) or maybe s/he missed links while setting up the rebuild. My fix was to link the files into /usr/lib; once that's done, revdep-rebuild succeeds. Don't know how hard it will be to get this fixed, and it's only a minor issue... but wanted to report it.
