Description:   Opened: 2007-08-10 13:49 0000 
Is this change intentional? I find it rather annoying, used to run w/ -pv first
to see how much stuff needs to be rebuilt, no longer possible, it always
rescans everything, which takes ages.

No the change was not intentional. I will look at fixing it to act the old way. 
I am assuming that you are running 'revdep-rebuild -pv', if not let me know
what you are runnning.

Yup. :)

------- Comment #3 From Michael A. Smith 2007-08-23 20:44:20 0000 ------- 
revdep-rebuild has never actually tried to parse single-letter options like
that. -pv would just get passed directly to EMERGE_OPTIONS. -p -v should work
in all versions of revdep-rebuild.

In the new version, -pv would be passed to EMERGE_OPTIONS, but r-r would not
recognize it as the same as --pretend, and things would break.

I intended to write some logic for r-r to handle single letter options, but the
old versions of r-r used options like -nc == --no-color, so any attempt I do
will break compatibility with old versions.

Paul, maybe we should deprecate options like -nc and spit out ewarns when users
use them, to prepare for a future version that will accept combined
single-letter options?

This patch against r453 should allow the use of combined flags like -pv. Please
test :)

This is actually a dupe of bug #101930. I just never noticed it before...

Bugfix -- the previous patch didn't take into account emerge options after the
'--' flag.
