12 net-analyzer/jffnms is not part of the official portage tree, nor is
13 it in the online package database. So there are only two ways this
14 ebuild exist:
15
16 1. It was previously a part of portage, and has since been removed, in
17 which case the next emerge --sync will end up removing it from your
18 portage tree.
19
20 2. You installed an ebuild manually in either the portage tree or
21 portage overlay.
22
23 Are there any copyright or CVS comments at the top of
24 /usr/portage/net-analyzer/jffnms/jffnms-0.8.2.ebuild?

29 No. There is only a single (official) portage tree for all archs.
