Ok, example. I have octave and octaveforge installed. if any of curl, gnuplot, coreutils... updated with .sobump it stop to work, cause it linked with old libs version. Sometime it updates after several days in repos. So, every time i should rebuild it manually. Why? Can't we create the rule "package _should_ be tested and _all_ packages depends on it _should_ be rebuilded before it going to core/extra/community." ?
