It's not like that here; something must still be skew-whiff:
prh@wstn ~ $ eix -Ice mesa
[I] media-libs/mesa (10.2.8{tbz2}@28/12/14): OpenGL-like graphic library for
Linux
prh@wstn ~ $ eix -Ice cairo
[I] x11-libs/cairo (1.12.16@22/11/14): A vector graphics library with
cross-device output support
This is amd64.
