Hi all,
I have just tried to use eix but all I'm getting is Found 0 matches.
I have updated eix
update-eix
Reading Portage settings ..
Building database (/var/cache/eix) from scratch ..
[0] /usr/portage/ (cache: cdb)
     Reading 100%
[1] /usr/local/portage/ (cache: none)
     Reading 100%
Applying masks ..
Database contains 1 packages in 147 categories.

This is the emerge info which I don't understand ( would I want to use cdb or 
backport ---whatever that is)
         * Please run 'update-eix' to setup the portage search database.
         * The database file will be located at /var/cache/eix

         * If you want to use cdb support, you need to add
         *     PORTDIR_CACHE_METHOD="cdb"
         * to /etc/eixrc or ~/.eixrc

         * If you want to use the backported cache patch of portage-2.1
         * you need to add
         *     PORTDIR_CACHE_METHOD="backport"
         * to /etc/eixrc or ~/.eixrc

         * As of >=eix-0.5.4, "metadata" is the new default cache.
         * It's independent of the portage-version and the cache used by 
portage.
What does this mean?
The following are the main items from my make.conf:-
CFLAGS="-O2 -march=athlon-xp -pipe"
CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86"
MAKEOPTS="-j2"
AUTOCLEAN="yes"
PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage/"
FEATURES="fixpackages ccache"
PORT_LOGDIR=/var/log/portage
CCACHE_SIZE="2G"
CCACHE_DIR="/var/tmp/ccache"

Sorry this is long but can anybody point me in the right direction please
Paul
