1 This is a fresh prefix install after the toolchain switched from
2 gcc-apple to clang. I noticed that dev-lang/perl-5.22.0 was installed,
3 despite it shows as masked in eix:
4
5 $ eix -e perl
6 [?] dev-lang/perl
7 Available versions: 5.20.2(0/5.20) 5.20.2-r1(0/5.20)
8 [M]5.22.0(0/5.22) {berkdb debug doc gdbm ithreads}
9 Installed versions: 5.22.0(22:10:13 07/05/2015)(-berkdb -debug
10 -doc -gdbm -ithreads)
11 Homepage: http://www.perl.org/
12 Description: Larry Wall's Practical Extraction and Report Language

14 Several other packages also behaves like this: installed, but show as
15 masked in eix result (an [M] mark before the installed version number)
16
17 * net-libs/gnutls
18 * virtual/perl-Data-Dumper
19 * virtual/perl-Digest-MD5
20 * virtual/perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker
21 * virtual/perl-File-Spec
22 * virtual/perl-Getopt-Long
23
24 Is this a bug of eix or something weird happened?
