We might ask the council to review this again, now that the breakage is surfacing. Wouldn't be better to add --changed-deps=y to defaults too? If --changed-deps=y would be able to also show a warning asking people to report a bug when it needs to work it would be even ideal as things wouldn't break but we would still get reports to fix things :) (In reply to Pacho Ramos from comment #2) > Wouldn't be better to add --changed-deps=y to defaults too?

I've filed bug 645780 for this. Great, thanks! That will likely also prevent potential "danger" issues like unwanted downgrades (like bug 645548) that could end up with other issues in the affected machine In portage-2.3.24, --dynamic-deps is default again, see bug 646458. |
