Greetings,
during my last routine upgrade package "media-video/vlc" installed new
dependency "media-libs/libmpg123". However, after installation "eix"
did not list the new package, while "eix-installed" did:
# eix-update --quiet
# env -i eix | grep -E 'app-portage/eix|media-libs/libmpg123'
[I] app-portage/eix
# env -i eix-installed all | grep -E
'app-portage/eix|media-libs/libmpg123'
app-portage/eix-0.36.7
media-libs/libmpg123-1.32.3-r1

Are there any "eix" gurus out there who can tell me how to trick "eix"
into listing _all_ packages?

Well the package in question is called media-sound/mpg123-base, so
there's that. Also, not sure why you would want to grep the output of
eix like that. eix -# 'app-portage/eix|media-sound/mpg123-base' will
give you very similar output, but there are other output options that
will give other output that might be more desirable for you.
I do have to follow up on this, the package was renamed, you probably
need to run an update with --changed-deps passed and it will get back
into a good state. eix isn't finding the package because it doesn't
exist anymore.
