I don't know, except for the fact that there's no packages in the eix
database. But I don't see why that should be happening. This is the

The  only thing I see is maybe you want to disable that cdb module,
depending on which version of Portage you're using (the latest stable
doesn't like it so much). But I don't think that would explain this, and
honestly I can't think of any configuration or anything that you need to
do with eix to get any ouput.

Sorry.
