Right.  But I can't --sync.

But beyond that, why does emerge say there are no ebuilds when there are?

I get the response:

3. 69.ebuild

I'm trying to emerge 2.3.69 because when I don't specify any version,
emerge gives me this:

The following keyword changes are necessary to proceed:
   ...

=sys-apps/portage-2.3.67 ~amd64

and 2.3.67 isn't even listed as being available.
What does eix tell you after 'emerge --sync && eix-update'?
I sync'ed this morning and sys-apps/portage-2.3.76 is the current stable
version.  A re-sync as Peter suggests ought to fix this problem.
