I have sys-kernel/pfeifer-soruces-2.4.21_pre4 installed. When doing "emerge -puD world", portage wants to "upgrade" this package to "sys-kernel/pfeifer-sources-2.4.20_pre11". Note that I said upgrade, not downgrade. Seems like a simple fix. Is it? homeserver pfeifer-sources # emerge -s pfeifer Searching...

Could you provide us the output of emerge info?
homeserver root # emerge info Your command is my wish. Here you go. However, this appears to be a "historical" issue, as a new "emerege sync" appears to have it cleared up. Thanks to whoever fixed it!
