From the `emerge binutils` that failed, it gives this version: |

Emerging (1 of 1) sys-devel/binutils-2.21.51.0.6 |

I see the following related to binutils in $EPREFIX/usr/portage/sys-devel/binutils |

|
15 |
$ ls usr/portage/sys-devel/binutils |
16 |
binutils-2.18-r04.1.ebuild binutils-2.21.51.0.6.ebuild Manifest |
17 |
binutils-2.19.1-r01.1.ebuild ChangeLog metadata.xml |

binutils-2.20.1-r1.ebuild files |
