Hi,
on my system are installed (beside other things, of course... :)
[I] virtual/w3m
Available versions: 0
Installed versions: 0(03:51:00 AM 04/18/2020)
Description: Virtual for the w3m web browser
[I] www-client/w3m
Available versions: 0.5.3_p20180125 (~)0.5.3_p20190105 {X fbcon
gdk-pixbuf gpm imlib libressl lynxkeymap nls nntp ssl unicode xface L10N="de

Normally I do a cleanup after each upgrade/compilation/install like
so:
emerge --selective=n @preserved-rebuild && emerge --depclean -va &&
eclean-dist -C -d -v && eix-test-obsolete
which removes
virtual/w3m
then. Next upgrade, which looks liek:
eix-sync ; emerge --update --newuse --deep --with-bdeps=y --tree
--keep-going --backtrack=30 -v --verbose-conflicts -1 @world
it installs
virtual/w3m
again.
And so on.
How can I stop this?
Are the commands I use fishy?
What is the reason of this loop -- other parts of the system will not
be reinstalled over and over again.... ?
Cheers!
