Comment 1 John Plesmid 2009-08-03 14:14:49 UTC
I should add that this problem is occuring on two systems. Both are maintained as close to stable as I can manage. 
On one system there is no /etc/portage/package.keywords file and on the other the keywords file is very small.
Comment 2 John Plesmid 2009-08-07 18:59:42 UTC
Please feel free to close this bug.
Today I did a world update, which forced me to run python-updater.
python-updater, in turn, caused a bunch of ebuilds to reinstall.
I then did another world update, after which etc-proposals started wwworking.
I have no idea which action corrected the problem, but I can no longer recreate it.
Thanks
