Hmm. I just commented an entry in package keywords and after that it showed up the same way as reported it. If i run portage it wants to downgrade that particular package.

I can not find gentoo-sources-2.6.23-r3 in any file in /etc/portage/package.* so sort of curious about that. I did check and I am not using that version anymore so I unmerged it. Maybe that will fix that. o_O

This should fix it! It was my mistake. Eix is looking up its database and does not find gentoo-sources-2.6.23-r3 because it has been removed from the tree thus it gets reported.

Still waiting on that light bulb moment. I been studying this thing the past couple days on my own so it's a bit . . . muddy, in here. LOL

Maybe you can enlighten me.

eix-test-obsolete checks first for non matching entries in a package file e.g. if I have an entry with a typo or a removed package then it will be reported.

But what is the difference between a "redundant entry" and an "uninstalled entry". As far as I see the matching criteria of both checks is a package which is not installed or in the database but in a package.* file.

Btw: eix-test-obsolete can not check for obsolete use-flags at the moment?
