Corrected in eix-0.5.5

I suggest adding >=app-portage/eix-0.5.5 in the DEPENDS of portage-2.1

Other way round perhaps?

Yes the inverse is better, i'm sorry

stable eix sould depend of portage <2.1 (strict)
Comment 3 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-03-31 07:52:21 UTC 
Don't mix arch and ~arch.
Comment 4 Stefan Schweizer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-03-31 08:55:37 UTC 
Or emerge eix after portage. I specifically implemented a workaround for this one and it is mentioned in the postinst notes.

eix is only 9 days old and it seems to be bugfree, but I do not think I can convince x86 to mark it stable now.

So tell me, what do you want? What should I do with your report?

Good ! i didn't know this. (Not explicit at all in the postinst message)
Nevertheless, it's not a very beautiful workaround.
But if you think it's sufficient, so let's close the bug.
