layman managed overlay is not listed in /etc/make.conf, but in /usr/portage/local/layman/make.conf. However, eix just check /etc/make.conf, don't look at /etc/make.conf. I made a patch so that eix could see those overlays managed by layman.
Created attachment 94377 [details, diff] this patch solves the problem
Which eix version? This was fixed in 0.5.6, see bug 132874
this is because the eix version in stable is outdated. arch teams: please do your work and mark the new version stable to avoid more duplicate bugs like this one.
HPPA done.

sparc stable. Builds and works fine.
1) emerges fine 2) passes collision test 3) passes test suite 4) works, though on my productive system I get textrels with GCC 4.1: Report further?

(In reply to comment #7) > > 4) works, though on my productive system I get textrels with GCC 4.1: Report > further? eix uses neither direct assembler code nor exports any library. Maybe some autotool thingy needs fPIC somewhere anyway? However, scanelf -qt /usr/bin does not report any textrel for one of the 3 eix programs, neither on x86 nor on amd64 (both compiled with gcc 4.1).
ppc-macos stable

However, I did search the bugzilla with keywords "eix", but none was found. So I filed this bug. Glad to see that this could be the last draw to make it stable on all archs. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 132874 ***

its sad that users do not understand yet how stabilization bugs work. Short explanation: This bug stays open until all affected architectures have had the honor to stick their stable keywords into the fixed ebuild.
reopen
(In reply to comment #12) > If you look at the bug that this was marked as a duplicate of you will see that > eix isn't in the keywords field. It's in the summary field.. What I have done is just searching "eix" in this page http://bugs.gentoo.org/ under "Enter a bug # or some search terms:". However, I know how to search for a bug now. The sad thing is nobody has pointed to me this page before http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/bugzilla-howto.xml. How a new user is supposed to get to know this howto?
Marked ppc64 stable
alpha stable.
x86 is gone ^.^;
amd64 happy
stable on ppc
ia64: please remove the old ebuild when done.
ia64 stabilized a newer version but did not close this one
