I uploaded my script for finding reverse dependencies here: http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/arch-tools.git;a=summary
Advantages over existing solutions (browsing to websites like tinderbox or qa-reports): - only prints stable packages when run on a stable system (no need to manually filter out things) - takes a list of packages as input, making it more effective for a batch workflow (we're short on time, batching is often critical) - produces output that can be fed to emerge after stripping comment lines (no junk after package names); again this is for the batch workflow It is still reasonably fast. On my machine it completes within 30 seconds. Comments welcome. I'd be very happy to adapt this to your needs. My main goal is to share those little scripts I use with others so we can all become more productive (and have more time for other things). Paweł
