Once app-editors/vis-0.3 is installed, I can't see it with eselect : % eselect vi list Available vi implementations: [1] vim * [2] nvim [3] busybox
Not a problem of eselect proper, but of the vi module. Reassigning to its maintainer (namely, vim project).
Despite not showing up in $ eselect vi list, you can still set the symlink: $ eselect vi list Available vi implementations: [1] vim [2] busybox $ eselect vi show Current vi implementation: vis
Created attachment 616722 [details, diff] patch to add vis to eselect-vi This works, although you need to unmask ~amd64 because only eselect-vi-1.1.9-r1 is EAPI>5.

I'm not sure to follow. The previous link is a commit to 'gentoo' git, but i can't see this eselect-vi/eselect-vi in my portage tree, even after syncing several days later. How can we check/validate ???
Try a different mirror.
So what you say is that I should actually have eselect-vi-1.3 ? I do get a lot of updates.. As usual. I'm syncing using git. And indeed, there's no 1.3 here: https://github.com/gentoo-mirror/gentoo/tree/stable/app-eselect/eselect-vi The main page on github says the repository was updated 11min ago.
20221122 > 1.3 > 1.2, so upgrade to the 2022 version...?
The git history will show you what happened: 1.3 was added, and then quickly replaced with 20221122. https://github.com/gentoo-mirror/gentoo/commits/stable/app-eselect/eselect-vi
oh ? 20221122 looks like a git snapshot or whatever. It's ~amd64, i hadn't even noticed it.. unmasked and tested, i can confirm "eselect vi" now knows about vis. Thanks !
