So portage takes /usr/local/portage before /usr/portage ? Cool thing! I will try that after emerge -eD world has finished ... 330 of 697 weeeeeee ;-) Although i don't have any downloaded packages, everything that went in, went in through portage ;D Besides...i got the following packages installed to /usr/local/..... I still doubt that this is a problem with ~amd64.... Perhaps something in /etc/env.d/ can cause this? Didn't change anything in there... rei python2.5 # qfile -v /usr/local/lib/python2.5 net-p2p/bittorrent-5.2.0 (/usr/local/lib/python2.5) sys-apps/file-4.26 (/usr/local/lib/python2.5) net-zope/zopeinterface-3.0.1-r1 (/usr/local/lib/python2.5) dev-java/java-config-1.3.7 (/usr/local/lib64/python2.5) dev-java/java-config-2.1.6-r1 (/usr/local/lib64/python2.5) dev-python/pyopenssl-0.7 (/usr/local/lib/python2.5) dev-python/pyopengl-3.0.0_beta1 (/usr/local/lib/python2.5) dev-python/pyxdg-0.15 (/usr/local/lib/python2.5) dev-python/twisted-8.1.0 (/usr/local/lib/python2.5) dev-python/pyrex-0.9.8.5 (/usr/local/lib/python2.5) dev-python/python-ldap-2.3.5 (/usr/local/lib/python2.5) dev-python/dnspython-1.6.0 (/usr/local/lib/python2.5) dev-python/wxpython-2.6.4.0-r2 (/usr/local/lib/python2.5) dev-python/numeric-24.2-r6 (/usr/local/lib/python2.5) dev-python/setuptools-0.6_rc8-r1 (/usr/local/lib/python2.5) dev-python/pycairo-1.4.12 (/usr/local/lib64/python2.5) dev-python/pyxml-0.8.4-r1 (/usr/local/lib64/python2.5) dev-python/twisted-web-8.1.0 (/usr/local/lib/python2.5) dev-python/gdata-1.0.8 (/usr/local/lib/python2.5) dev-python/pycrypto-2.0.1-r6 (/usr/local/lib/python2.5) - Andreas
