I just ran
# find /usr/lib* -type f -print0 | xargs -0 qfile -o | more
an was suprised how much orphans there are, already excluding the
python
and perl stuff.
Here's some suprising stuff:
/usr/lib64/systemd/system/canberra-system-shutdown-reboot.service
SNIP
I've found out a strange effect.
Many files in /usr/lib64 are NOT recorded by portage but only the
corresponding names in
/usr/lib
Therefore I've used
find -L /usr/lib -regextype posix-extended -regex '.*.so(\.[0-9])+'
-type f -print0 | xargs -0 qfile -o | more
which says I don't have a single orphan on my machine.
Here /usr/lib is a symlink to /usr/lib64
