Yesterday I was having problems with a few packages, like openoffice,

to run python-updater, which I did. It reemerged 33 packages one of
which was alsa-libs. It reemerged alsa-lib, it did not upgrade it.
This should fix it:
revdep-rebuild -X -i --ask
the problem seems to be a link problem with the ALSA lib. When you
hear "link problem", revdep-rebuild is the solution most of the time.
It will rebuild packages that use the ALSA lib.
I ran into this the other day. It doesn't like the -a or --ask option.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] / # revdep-rebuild -i --ask
Encountered unrecognized option --ask.
revdep-rebuild no longer automatically passes unrecognized options to
portage.
Separate emerge-only options from revdep-rebuild options with the -- flag.
For example, revdep-rebuild -v -- --ask
See the man page or revdep-rebuild -h for more detail.

Looks like it needs a little extra code. The -p option works tho.
