Description Marien Zwart (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-04-12 18:35:22 UTC 
Behavior on mentioning a "mirror name" twice in the thirdpartymirrors
file (section 3.4.2) is undefined (although it hints that the first
one is used). As far as I can tell portage 2.1.2.3 actually treats
these as incremental (but iirc older portages do not and pick either the first or the last one, I forgot which). 

It is probably best to require each "mirror name" to occur at most once in the thirdpartymirrors file.
