I installed xemacs a few weeks ago and uninstalled it yesterday. But portage wanted to install it again when I executed emerge -pU world. I found out that I had to edit /var/cache/edb/virtuals.

Code:

virtual/editor app-editors/xemacs app-editors/vim


I changed that line to:

Code:

virtual/editor app-editors/vim


And portage no longer tried to emerge xemacs.
Is that a bug?

Yes, there was a bug in portage versions prior to 2.0.49 that prevented the removal of virtuals.

Hmm, I thought it was fixed. But if you still have it better place a comment on bug 1891. There was at least one other bug about it, but I haven't found it now.
