Very often, when I am editing an ebuild or file, I test it and, then, try to merge the package using --digest option but it sometimes fails with: >>> Verifying ebuild manifests !!! A file is not listed in the Manifest: '/usr/portage/x11-misc/virtualgl/files/vgl.confd~' I think this wasn't failing months ago with more older portage versions, but I don't remember when I started to see this behavior :-/ Thanks a lot Reproducible: Always Portage 2.1.11.9 (default/linux/amd64/10.0/desktop/gnome, gcc-4.5.3, glibc-2.14.1-r3, 3.4.5-gentoo x86_64)

Yeah, there's really nothing we can do.
