On a run of revdep-rebuild I get the following output: butthead ~ # revdep-rebuild -p
Checking reverse dependencies... Packages containing binaries and libraries broken by any package update, will be recompiled. Collecting system binaries and libraries... done.

And I'm cool with the fact that revdep-rebuild didn't try to install gnome even though these are marked as broken. The question is, I guess, whether 'broken' has some other meaning than what I'm thinking, and do I need to be worried? -- [email protected] mailing list
