[ebuild     U ] net-misc/rdate-990821-r2 [1.4] -debug +ipv6  0 kB 

Total size of downloads: 0 kB


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add "net-misc/rdate ~x86" to /etc/portage/package.keyword
2. Verfy your entry
>grep rdate /etc/portage/package.keywords
net-misc/rdate ~x86
3. Try to update the rdate package with emerge -u rdate => does not work, because the last 990XXX stable marked package has the highest version number.

Actual Results:  
Stayed with 990XXX versoin

Expected Results:  
Update to the 1.4 version
