Description Zac Medico gentoo-dev

In the depgraph _slot_operator_update_probe method, initialization of the atom_not_selected variable can be accidentally skipped in some cases, which makes the method fail to properly identify slot operator rebuild candidates. I'll post a patch that solves the problem.
