You can tell eix not to warn you about anything in the perl-experimental |
17 |
overlay. Here's what I've done for the haskell overlay. |

$ cat /etc/portage/package.nowarn |

# Disable eix's REDUNDANT_IF_NO_CHANGE tests for the wildcard. |

*/*::gentoo-haskell in_keywords no_change |

You may have to adjust the "in_keywords no_change" part, depending on |

the specific type of freak-out you're experiencing. The options are all |

documented in the eix man page under package.nowarn. |
