Hi,
we didn't had a large rebuild for a long time now.
i the same time i pushed a new x264 as well.
happy compiling.

If you want to, you can try libdeps (previously called sodeps) with this rebuild.
Since pacman 4, makepkg will automatically add the library version to provide/depends entries ending in .so when writing .PKGINFO.
A quick example for readline:
- In the readline PKGBUILD one would add "provides=(libreadline.so)". When building makepkg expands that to "libreadline.so=6-64". 6 is the library version (from the soname) and 64 is the architecture (64-bit).
- Then one could add "depends=(libreadline.so)" in the bash PKGBUILD and makepkg would check all binaries in the final package, extract the version numbers of the needed libraries and create "libreadline.so=6-64".
- When upgrading now, pacman will ensure that the libreadline.so dependency for bash is always met and it will complain if the library gets updated and bash hasn't yet been rebuilt.
This can also be handy to spot aur packages that will break when upgrading. (The warnings can be ignored by using the -d option in pacman)
It will not break the PKGBUILD for older makepkg versions and it's also completely transparent to pacman. All the magic is done in makepkg.
If you want to see which libraries a package links to or provides, you can use my scripts [1] [2].
In case something is unclear, just ask :)

I'd say we shouldn't start using this randomly on packages now. there are a few examples where sodeps might be useful; e.g. for pacman and its deps. So especially for packages that are not in [core] I would consider not using it.
It makes things more complicated and solves a problem we don't really have. It's also not useful to introduce it for just one lib. It's probably needed for the whole dependency subtree of a package. I hope this explanation will do for now :-)
Greetings,

Andrea, i just noticed that kde is in there. Skip recompiling them because i don't intend to move before kde.

FYI, KDE 4.7.3 should be released either tomorrow or Wednesday, but that of course depends on upstream.

No problem. Is just the kdemultimedia module that needs to be rebuilt, and I already rebuilt it as -2, but I'll not push it until KDE leaves [staging] (tomorrow).

If you can wait for one more day I can do my little todo list. Feel free to build them yourself if you are in a hurry.
