Description Jon Nelson (RETIRED) 2002-04-07 12:58:51 UTC 
host:~# emerge -C control-center
Couldn't find any matching installed packages.
host:~# ls /var/db/pkg/gnome-base/control-center-1.4.0.4-r1/
CATEGORY  CONTENTS  PF       SLOT

CHOST     LICENSE   RDEPEND  control-center-1.4.0.4-r1.ebuild
host:~# 

I get the same results for gnome-vfs as well.
Same if I use unmerge instead of -C (actually, tried umerge first)

Comment 2 Geert Bevin 2002-04-08 00:36:13 UTC 
try 'emerge --all unmerge control-center'
emerge now defaults to --safe by default as well for clean as unmerge, --all
removes all versions
Comment 3 Tim 2002-04-08 00:39:39 UTC 
velius root # emerge unmerge net-misc/netkit-telnetd 
Couldn't find any matching installed packages. 
velius root # qpkg -I | grep telnet 
net-misc/netkit-telnetd-0.17-r2 * 
 
I tried all variants of telnetd, from telnet to netkid-telnetd-version. No 
luck.

Current cvs version of emerge provides better reporting which should remove all
confusion. It will be available in the next portage release.
