The file you want is /var/lib/portage/preserved_libs_registry
# cat /var/lib/portage/preserved_libs_registry
{
"dev-libs/openssl:0": [
"dev-libs/openssl-1.1.0j",
"62711",
[
"/usr/lib32/libcrypto.so.1.0.0",
"/usr/lib32/libssl.so.1.0.0",
"/usr/lib64/libcrypto.so.1.0.0",
"/usr/lib64/libssl.so.1.0.0"

Thanks Rich, I'll try that later. I've found those packages with revdep-rebuild --library ... s.t. there aren't any packages currently in @preserved-rebuild

[gentoo-user] @preserved-rebuild how to find out the contents of
Hi, I have some old packages like dev-qt/qtcore:4 on my machine, and other packages which need this. Therefore emerge -vp @preserved-rebuild doesn't work. How can I find out the list of packages in @preserved-rebuild? Many thanks for a hint, Helmut
