What I meant is that emerge --sync/eix --sync does this check instead of 
eselect repository. To me this makes sense since we can only do this 
check *after* syncing. Plus the user can also make changes to repos.conf 
without using eselect repository, having the check done post-syncing 
covers these cases as well.

You're probably right that once we have some message that says "Warning: 
{repo1} is missing, it is required by {repo2}" it should be trivial to 
call 'eselect repository enable {repo1}'. This however would require 
that profiles/repo_name is always equal to the name entry in 
repositories.xml, I'm not sure if this is currently always the case.

Best regards,
Andrew
