The ebuilds for "elicit embrace engage epsilon equate erss evidence examine" are damaged. They have a version number of 9999, contents are corrupted, etc. Just sync and cd to /usr/portage/apps-misc/examine and see yourself. I made sure this is not my own mistake - others have the same problem. "emerge-webrsync && esync" didnt solve it too. This is rather importent i think, which is why i made it a "BLOCKER"...

they look perfectly fine to me
Servername : rsync8.de.gentoo.org Server IP : 80.190.246.242 I just sync'ed with this server and there's no change to the problem i descibed above. If you guys use servers from other countries it may be possible that the problem isn't there. But if you don't trust me, do not resolve it invalid but ask some guys on irc, just as i did, and they might tell you the same or not. See, i asked 4 people - 3 had the problem, 1 didn't. I am not sure which servers are "damaged" but I know of the above server, rsync8.de, because i just tried it out with this one. And, the one who did not have this problem maybe also use non-german servers, which i do not know. "ChangeLog Manifest examine-0.0.1.20041016.ebuild examine-9999.ebuild files metadata.xml" <-- This for example is the content of /usr/portage/app-misc/examine/
nothing you've described is a bug i added the 9999 versions on purpose
Well - then there should have been at least some remark i think - it didn't look like all-day-updating, you see? I think some small hint in the changelook or similar you have been fine... Also some people compained about portage trying to update to those 9999 versions. I cannot poof this, didnt have the problem myself, and i also don't know if this would have been wanted? Anyway, as i said, without any remark they looked like bugs.
the 9999 versions have KEYWORDS=-* so unless they tweaked their /etc/portage/ files to allow for this, portage shouldnt have upgraded to them
