Those are the ones we probably do understand. You just up the SLOT (and if you really need to, use blockers between slots, although this is discouraged in favour of writing better ebuilds), and everything that build+run-deps upon these things uses := dependencies. > - Rebuild python/perl/ocaml stuff after python/perl/ocaml update That depends. If you only have to do it after an upgrade, same solution. If you have to do it with a rebuild too, then that's one of the situations I claim we don't fully understand because no-one has specified what the exact general problem is (although lots of people have looked at one particular case and assumed that their case holds for everything, which isn't true). -- Ciaran McCreesh
