Hi, again, I have to work around a broken Gentoo system. (I cannot re-install kde-base/step)
Because of that I have to replace emerge @preserved-rebuild by something which just updates all packages depending on media-libs/jpeg . Here, equery -qC depends media-libs/jpeg or probably equery -qC depends --indirect media-libs/jpeg comes to my mind. But the output is not quite what I need. I'd like to use parallel emerge (option -j4) since there are a lots of packages to re-emerge. I'd need a long line containing several items, e.g. '=dev-python/pygraphviz-0.99.1' I could send the output of equery to a file, edit it with an editor with good regexp support and hand it over to the shell. But I wonder, is there an easier way to use portage utilities for that?
