I'm installed sys-apps/portage-2.2_rc48 and look that extend, remove and intersect features doesn't works. sys-apps/portage-2.2_rc33 works with it without error but uncorrect, foe i.e.: # emerge -upv @world-@downgrade These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

As noted in bug #253802, comment #7, I've removed the extend, remove and intersect implementation (that existed in 2.2_rc33) because it did not meet all user expectations of how it should behave. When it is re-implemented in the future, it will behave differently, and the sets.conf usage may be different. In addition to the problem of not meeting user expectations, I also removed it because it would have conflicted with a change I have made in the --depclean --verbose output which displays reverse dependencies of package sets that are nested inside of world.
In r11597, the "repository" options for "CategorySet" has been removed, in favor of the "intersect" operator. Now that there is no more "intersect", could you add the "repository" option back? I find this kind of sets much more useful when they can be restricted to installed packages only (ie. with repository=vartree instead of porttree). I will attach a cleaned up revert patch.
Created attachment 210778 [details, diff] revert-r11597.patch (re-add "repository" option in CategorySet)
(In reply to comment #4) > Created an attachment (id=210778) [details] > revert-r11597.patch (re-add "repository" option in CategorySet) Thanks, that's in svn r14874.
I guess we can close this since now it's been released for some time. FYI, bug 322883 outlines plans for package set operator expressions.
