No quick answers from the list so I tried: emerge -C e2fsprogs-libs emerge -DuN @world? revdep-rebuild -i and now the preserved-rebuild info is gone. myth12 ~ # emerge -p @preserved-rebuild emerge: 'preserved-rebuild' is an empty set emerge: no targets left after set expansion myth12 ~ # So I guess it's fixed.
