After a package has been removed, ChangeLogs are still being generated: $ ls /usr/portage/dev-java/commons-grant ChangeLog ChangeLog-2015 Manifest
For what its worth the following #!/usr/bin/env python import portage portdb = portage.db[portage.root]["porttree"].dbapi tree = portdb.cp_all() for _cp in tree: try: _cpv = portdb.cp_list(_cp)[0] except IndexError: print('Package with no ebuilds: %s ' % _cp) continue finds all cat/pkgs that have no ebuilds.
