I have always wanted a more visual representation of the portage dependency graph, so I put together a little script:

Code:

#!/bin/bash

cd /var/db/pkg
pkglist=$(find . -maxdepth 2 -type d | cut -c3- | grep /)

{
        echo "// gentoo package dependency graph"
        echo "// machine: $(hostname)"
        echo "// started at: $(date)"
        echo 'digraph depgraph {'
        echo '  ranksep=1'
        echo '  nodesep=1'
        echo '  overlap=false'

        for pkg in ${pkglist} ; do
                equery depends =${pkg} | cut -d'(' -f1 | sed -e 's%\(.*\)%  "\0" -> "'${pkg}'"%g'
        done

        echo '}'

}
#| tee depgraph.dot | twopi -Tps


Just pipe the output of this script into depgraph.dot and feed that into twopi (media-gfx/graphviz).
The only problem left now is finding an image viewer that can actually handle such a huge graph.. :D

Yours, Florian

P.S. I know very well that this is entirely unelegant and slow. So please improve it!

Did you find an image viewer for the dot file?
