But it's Gentoo's script, right? How about just adding the command you posted to lafilefixer? Some people are used to think of Gentoo as the distro where things break once a week. I don't think that, but I can easily imagine how having to run a different command on each upgrade is frustrating people. On the other hand, when we can ensure that emerge -uDNa world, revdep-rebuild, dispatch-conf and lafilefixer result in a working system without additional work, that makes updates more predictable.
