!!! Warning: couldn't find match for virtual/x11-web-browser in update (likely
old /var/db/pkg entry)

This is the warning I get when emerge is doing dependencies checking.

Inside /var/db/pkg/virtual/x11-web-browser/VIRTUAL it's written:

net-www/mozilla-0.9.7-r1

Comment 1 Geert Bevin 2002-02-05 13:23:30 UTC

set virtual/x11-web-browser to net-www/mozilla

Also noted that after upgrading mozilla all new revision of mozilla got added to
that file...

net-www/mozilla-0.9.7-r1
net-www/mozilla-0.9.7-r2
net-www/mozilla-0.9.8

Comment 3 Geert Bevin 2002-02-05 14:05:27 UTC

that's normal, all browsers that provide that functionality and that are merged
on your system will be present
