you could grep for the old lib in /usr and rebuild everything which has its 
name somewhere.

Yeah revdep-rebuild only comes up with transmission (which could have
needed a rebuild before messing with glib), and transmission fails to
build.  The main problem is with gdm.  It won't load with an
unresolved symbol error (I think) and won't rebuild either.

Would more specific errors be helpful here or should this be
approached a different way?

[gentoo-user] Downgrading glib

2008-06-17 Thread Grant
I downgraded from glib-2.17.2 to glib-2.14.6 and had problems so I
went back to 2.17.2.  How can I make this downgrade successfully?
