When running eread for empty elog dir, it loops forever:

This is a list of portage log items. Choose a number to view that file or type q to quit.

No log items to read
/usr/bin/eread: line 64: break: only meaningful in a `for', `while', or `until' loop

The code in question is inside a function inside an until loop and this used to work fine. However, I will refactor the code to put the until loop in the function and fix the issue.
