The news item from 2015-10-22 suggests (I have gentoolkit-0.3.3)
# revdep-rebuild --library 'libstdc++.so.6' -- --exclude gcc
Is that the entire procedure needed? In particular, ignoring
performance, can I avoid emerge --emptytree and just execute?
# gcc-config x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-5.4.0
# revdep-rebuild --library 'libstdc++.so.6' -- --exclude gcc
That usually works. If you want to be 100% sure, you still need a full
@system followed by a @world rebuild. But usually just rebuilding
C++-linked packages will give you a stable system.
I still recommend a @system rebuild at least though, since it's fast.
