However, try running revdep-rebuild telling it the library to       search for:              # revdep-rebuild --library=libpdf.so.2              If that doesn't work either, you can probably file a bug on       http://bugs.gentoo.org.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
