Though JPilot 0.97.7 has been out since Feb. according to jpilot.org, it isn't in portage. Even if I use ~x86, it says the newest version is 0.97.6-r1. The bug: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44672 may be a duplicate or may be relevant, but I didn't really understand it so I'm not sure. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
you need to re-sync your portage tree, run: emerge sync check http://packages.gentoo.org/ to verify that we do have the latest version in portage.
It's there now under ~x86, but I'm quite sure it wasn't before, and I used emerge sync. Oh well.
