So I tried using Kito's solaris configure code this morning.  I don't
think it changed much.

Here's my emerge --info:
$ emerge  --info

I have a package.provided containing:

dev-lang/python-2.3.4
sys-devel/autoconf-2.59
sys-devel/automake-1.9.2
sys-devel/binutils-2.15.92
sys-devel/libtools-1.5.6

These are the rpm versions of these packages.  These versions aren't
in the prefix portage tree.  What is the correct way to deal with
these?

thanks
matt
