Ouch, too bad. I realized the same as I was reading portage man page
about that file. It requires explicit versions for the provided
packages, and that makes my suggestion a non-working one.

But then I just noticed this in your first email:

I assume that's just a typo in the email? That file has no s (plural)
before the dot, and if you create one with an s, I think it will just
be silently ignored.
