The "skype-eula" license is not in the license_groups file, means not in the @EULA license group. This allows users to install net-im/skype without being warned, though the @EULA license set is masked. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
ulm, care to look at this? not sure if the ebuild is also missing check_license()

Thanks Ulrich, works as expected now. I hope it's ok that I take the liberty to set the bug to FIXED.
It is worth adding, for people (who know little about "licences") who run across this bug that the following document is helpful: http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Licenses
Nope,t still isn't clear. I added net-im/skype-eula to /etc/portage/package.licences and /etc/portage/package.unmask and I still get the error that skype-2.0.0.72 is masked by skype-eula.
A little more googling and I got it. Add to /etc/portage/package.license: net-im/skype skype-eula No change is required to /etc/portage/package.mask.
