Gack I see its a symlink ... but now I'm even more confused.  The
symlink points to:
/usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/2005.0

/etc/portage/profile does not appear to be a symlink to that address
yet placing my file there, it also turns up in 
/usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/2005.0

So are these hardlinked or what? 
At any rate the file appears in 
/etc/portage/profile/package.provided
/etc/make.profile/package.provided
/usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/2005.0/package.provided

Yet I still get output from emerge indicating both of the listed
packaged need to be installed as dependancies to one thing or
another.
