"Appendix B: Unspecified Items
The following items are not specified by this document,
and must not be relied upon by ebuilds.
[...]
The VDB (/var/db/pkg)
[...]"
This is bugging me for quite a while already, because I
had to try and to rely on undocumented behaviour for all
features of eix which access /var/db/pkg.
It also is one of the reasons why it might be dangerous
if you use another PM even only for testing purposes:
In theory, it might even be possible that a package installed
by one PM is not recognized by the other.
I guess that this is not a big problem in practice, but
in fine points like the discussed prerm perhaps some
problems might arise through mixing.
