I've marked this stable on alpha.  It does have one major flaw.  It vomits all over itself if it can't find the man page (FEATURES="noman") which should probably be fixed in the next version.

Dang, I thought I had fixed that... But on reading it some more, I think I see the problem. Are you having it die with this message?
 "Can't set a new provider"

Try it with the following patch.

Created attachment 110777 [details, diff]
eselect-vi-1.1.4-fix-noman.diff

This patch should stop eselect-vi from failing when FEATURES="noman" is used.

[Comment 10 Alexander Færøy 2007-02-21 18:26:08 UTC]

Stable on MIPS.
Looks cool with both noman and without ;)

Sweet... removing myself from CC, then...

Nothing left here.
