Description Greg Kubaryk 2022-10-17 19:39:23 UTC 
The man page for eclean refers to the old default DISTDIR of /usr/portage/distfiles (new default is /var/cache/distfiles) and old default PKGDIR of /usr/portage/packages (new default is /var/cache/binpkgs). It is harmless to leave it as is because of the way it is worded, but newer installs use the newer locations and have been for several years.

looks like the DISTDIR path was already changed in c6dee3ef49e122a99dd299eae4749b7188751287
