Right. I misspoke. New use flags, not new a package.
However the outcome is consistent. It says it's 'fetching' because
it's responding to the idea that there's a new use flag, but then
fetches nothing because the file is already here and builds nothing
because it's already been built.
It's not a big deal. The machine is fine. Everything is consistent as
far as I know. However some portion of the download logic in emerge is
confused.
I've seen this sort of thing a few times in the past but it's always
cleared up in a day or two. This one has gone on for weeks.
Note that I do use ~amd64 on portage& eix. Maybe it's a bug that
hasn't been cleaned up yet.
So, following through, there does appear to be a new flag setting
(-gdu) however it's not triggered emerging @world even though packages
on the system require gvfs according to equery.
Somethings inconsistent. (Possibly my brain!)

What does it do when you run:
emerge -vDuN gvfs
It should start to compile the package. Keep in mind, if you use the -f
option, it will fetch but not compile or anything else. I used to use
that back when I was on dial-up, which sucked by the way. Even this
slow DSL is about 30 times faster than my old dial-up. lol It *should*
only fetch it once tho unless it fails the checksum thingy. Portage
should give you a error message tho.
