Thanks all for answering. Now it's much clearer why this is happening.
Alan - do you use some sort of extra config for eix? Your output is
far more readable.
Thanks,
Mark

The second one is the SLOT for that package. Run eix on an unslotted
package and you don't get it, such as:
[I] dev-libs/eet
Available versions: (~)0.9.10.030 !0.9.10.030[1] (*)9999 !9999[1]
Installed versions: 9999(15:14:01 12/08/06)(doc -nls)

Description: E file chunk reading/writing library
With a SLOTted package, it's useful to know which SLOT the package is
in, I also see that your's shows them after a colon, but mine is within
parenthesis:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ eix gentoo-sources
[I] sys-kernel/gentoo-sources
