-k Tells emerge to use binary packages *if available*. I have tried emerge -k '=packageversion' including the needed '', but, failing to find the corresponding ebuild (I've synced and tried to install modular X), it merely states "there are no ebuilds" without looking for a binary package. To reproduce: see #135700 Workaround: emerge -K '=packageversion'
