Yay, we've talked about this quite a lot, and there's the simple and always working way, but maybe somewhat overkill sometime, that poudriere is doing right now, and there is the way that *always* gets out *exactly* *right* what package to rebuild, and what package not to rebuild. That second way of doing things would be a monsterously beast of bugridden code, and take so much reverse engineering into each package to figure out what it needs it would certainly take more time in the end. -- Mathieu Arnold
