Created attachment 138313 [details] Output from revdep-rebuild
We can't re-emerge non-existant packages removed from the tree over a year ago. Unmerge the xmms cruft, KDE 3.2, KDE 3.3 etc. and wipe the orphaned files manually, sorry.
Shouldn't revdep-rebuild inform you of this instead of just exiting with : * Nothing to rebuild. * (The program should have already quit, so this is a minor bug.) At the very least it should give us an error message about not being able to emerge non-existent packages or some type of useful error of why it's exiting with a code other than 0.
Sigh; as said above, unmerge cruft removed from the tree years ago, we won't fix this.
