Hi,

it seems, something has screwed up my system. 

The symptoms are: Updateing a certain package with emerge (which 
successfully compile and install that package) has no effect. 
Next time exactly the same package is reported again as to be
updated.

And qsearch reports that my metadatabase has gone with the wind
and I have to do a 'w -m' as root, which helps for that moment,
but next it is again not present. I think (read:dont know for sure)
that the 
    eix-sync && emerge -pv --verbose --update --deep world
has "killed" it.

Unfortunately I am not that deeply involved in the internal
data handling of the gentoo package manager to have an idea
what is going wrong here.

What can I do to fix this problem ?

Kind regards and have a nice weekend!
mcc
