Is there a "zypper ps" (from openSUSE) equivalent for Gentoo?
On openSUSE, there's a very helpful command after performing updates
that tells me which running programs are using files that were just
overwritten by updated copies. The command is "zypper ps". It helps to
avoid rebooting the machine (as I have to do in Gentoo), since I know
exactly what needs to be restarted (like X, sshd, etc.)
Is there something like that in Gentoo?

app-admin/lib_users
And do not forget app-admin/checkrestart
That one seems even better than lib_users; it also reports files other
than *.so files.
