Hi guys,

I just wrote a GLEP, proposing a solution to the problem that updating
f.ex. openssl, requires recompiling almost world
(kde,mozilla,galeon,wget,irrsi,python etc.) - and breaks your system if
you don't complete all this, while you are running (since the old
openssl files are removed after the openssl upgrade -and programs that
haven't been recompiled will break).

You can see it here:

I hope you like the idea, and the proposed solution. Please comment if
you have any questions, as I would very much like to see this happen, so
I can run emerge -u world again :)
