#24338: Alpine 2.00_1+passfile+without_tcl fails to start after openldap upgrade ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Reporter: bitmail@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.8.2 Resolution: invalid | Keywords: alpine openldap upgrade library Port: alpine | ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Comment(by bitmail@…): Replying to [comment:3 todmorrison@…]:
Unfortunately it does not automatically rebuild dependents, and having it do so could cause more problems than it solves. Probably, what we need is something like Gentoo's "revdep-rebuild" (http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoolkit.xml).[[BR]] [[BR]]
After having a short glance at the details provided about the [http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoolkit.xml gentoolkit], I have to say that this looks really good. And the "revdep-rebuild" would indeed suited this situation perfect:
It will scan your installed ebuilds to find packages that have become broken as a result of an upgrade of a package they depend on. It can emerge those packages for you but it can also happen that a given package does not work anymore with the currently installed dependencies, in which case you should upgrade the broken package to a more recent version.
