Well, I'm sort of tied up at the moment.  In the process of picking out
a rifle.  I can only afford to do this once for a good long while so I
got to pick a good one.  Anyway, I tried the settings Helmut posted, it
didn't work.  I think the version I have installed doesn't allow that so
I may have to upgrade it to test.  I also took a look at the eix man
page.  I went like this:  O_O  I also CC'd myself on the bug and the dev
is working on it like a bee making honey.  I think he is about to revert
back to the old way since it is causing him grief.  If he does, then we
will be happy and someone else can cry over the spilt milk.  lol 

If I figure out something or Helmut's config works, I'll post back.
