Thanks.

 Hi,
I did an emerge of perl on my home box this morning. There was a message
 on my screen about running some program to look for packages that needed to
 be rebuilt or relinked with this new version. I'm at work now and want to
 regenerate that message. How can I do that without re-emerging perl again?

Look at the ebuild in /var/db/pkg/dev-perl/perlsomething/perlsomething.ebuild

Thanks Mike. That was the path I took on my own. I was just thinking there
would be some way to get this more automatically, like when you do an
emerge -p world and have many messages you might not see since you're not
sitting there. I only spotted this one since it was at the end of the build.

cheers,
Mark

I have turned on portage logging to solve this problem.

Uh...sounds cool. How does one turn on portage logging?

Thanks,

Set PORT_LOGDIR=/var/log/portage in make.conf (or some other directory). Be
