I'm pretty sure Nikos is correct. When running revdep-rebuild, you'll get the 
following message that pretty much indicates the shell script version is being 
retired:

 * This is the new python coded version
 * Please report any bugs found using it.
 * The original revdep-rebuild script is installed as revdep-rebuild.sh
 * Please file bugs at: https://bugs.gentoo.org/
