revdep-rebuild --library=libmysqlclient.so.12
Sigh... Why do we have to jump through so many hoops to get things working. Wouldn't it be convienent to just have revdep-rebuild run as a part of emerge sync or something. Perhaps a small utility to determine missing dependencies and auto fix that. Which could be auto launched as a part of emerge sync or something like that...
