From the ChangeLog of eix-0.22.0: - Switch off REDUNDANT_IF_{IN,DOUBLE}_{USE,ENV,CFLAGS} by default: Usually, double entries are intentional here, and most people will want to leave some settings after deinstallation for later usage. If you want the previous behavior you have to set the variables correspondingly to the previous values, e.g. put into /etc/eixrc: REDUNDANT_IF_IN_USE="-some" REDUNDANT_IF_IN_ENV="-some" REDUNDANT_IF_IN_CFLAGS="-some" REDUNDANT_IF_DOUBLE_USE="some" REDUNDANT_IF_DOUBLE_ENV="some" REDUNDANT_IF_DOUBLE_CFLAGS="some" (the very first line will switch on the test which you were missing.)
Ah, thanks! Obviously, I wasn't aware of that. Although I agree on the rationale for some use cases, the wording of the test results is wrong now, IMHO.
You are completely right. I had omitted the "(or test switched off)" because the lines with this text became too long, and starting a new line with only an repeated message gave a rather confusing output. I think it is necessary to make the script more intelligent to at least try to guess why a test failed...
app-portage/eix-0.22.9 is in the tree
