Description Marijn Schouten (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-10-10 12:26:23 UTC
revdep-rebuild doesn't support multiple --library options. Currently it seems to ignore all but the last one. Somewhat relatedly, an option to find these outdated libraries instead of having to specify them on the command-line would be appreciated.
Comment 1 Brian Dolbec (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-10-10 15:38:44 UTC
ok, I can confirm that the bash version does only recognize 1 library.  It it due to the way the code is written.  It accepts only 1, the last option wins.

For gentoolkit-9999 and the new python version it will accept multiple libraries from the command line in several ways

1)  as --lirary asdf.so.2  --library qwerty.so

2) a comma separated list  --library asdf.so.2,qwerty.so

3) mix of 1 and 2 above.

However, currently it fails to say that it is looking for specific libraries and what they are.  So you can't tell without some valid library names and pkgs to rebuild.
Comment 2 Brian Dolbec (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-10-10 16:15:03 UTC
I've added some output for both the libraries it is looking for and any libraries it failed to find.  commit 4fd527a67416ea278e450602c2bc73fe97ef06bc.

However, from looking at the code and the false lib names I used to test with. I believe that the partial lib names portion is broken or not implemented (at least from the code I saw).

needs more testing.

Please test the -9999 version and report any problems with it.
