May want to look at this link. https://wiki.gentoo.org/index.php?title=/etc/portage/repos.conf/gentoo.conf&oldid=378294 Maybe that will give better results, not that I see anything wrong with what you have myself. BTW, I did a forum search, make sure you don't have other files in /etc/portage/repos.conf. It seems that if you have more than one, it takes the last one and runs with it. Someone else had gentoo.conf.bak and it was reading it instead of gentoo.conf. It sort of works like package.use and such. Make sense? I'm beat over here. lol Hope that helps. Dale :-) :-)
