Description Mark Zhitomirski 2012-11-09 17:38:33 UTC

My story:
- installed www-apps/redmine-1.3.2 with dev-db/mysql-5.1.61 or something like that and ran it OK for many months.
- when noticed that mysql-5.5 has arrived in Portage decided to try just that
- upgraded mysql by running emerge -uDN1 --with-bdeps=y =dev-ruby/activerecord-2.3.14 (to keep Redmine from upgrading to newer version)
- restarted mysql, ran 'mysql_upgrade', updated help tables 
- wondering why nobody cared to update Ruby modules decided to give it a try
- directed browser to my Redmine page and saw Rails (or Passenger - not sure) error page noticing  '/usr/lib64/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/x86_64-linux/mysql.so'
- checked origin for it and found it to be 'mysql-ruby'
- re-emerged it with 'emerge -1 mysql-ruby'
- my Redmine starts OK

That is your responsibility using either portage's preserved-rebuild feature or revdep-rebuild(1) from gentoolkit.
