I would like eselect to be able to recognize kernel source trees other than the ones currently being scanned for. I have my own private tree as shown below. I now have to force meaningless digits (or I should make it so that the directory name changes with the version currently checked out :/) to be able to use eselect to switch trees. $ ls -rtl /usr/src/ total 8 drwxr-xr-x 24 root root 4096 Jul 7 16:00 linux-3.15.3 drwxr-xr-x 23 root root 4096 Jul 7 18:09 linux-3.15.4 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Jul 9 10:59 linux-live -> /home/linux-live/ lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Jul 9 13:06 linux -> linux-3.15.3 christophe@localhost /usr/src $ eselect kernel list Available kernel symlink targets: [1] linux-3.15.3 * [2] linux-3.15.4 Discussed with ulm, he is referring to http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/eselect.git;a=commitdiff;h=dca021004d8a2efee2701fa604541359a457f722 which fixed https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=104354 both dated 2005 Reproducible: Always

Fixed in eselect-1.4.3. Thanks for reporting.
