Well, two things, -- I was trying to emerge a package which had a
higher version in the overlay and which I had put in my
/etc/portage/package.keywords file, but I got a reinstall of the
existing package instead. And second when it was working after the
rebuild info it would say [1] <overlay directory>
[2] <another overlay directory> but it is not saying that now. Am I
missing something here?
