[gentoo-user] perl-cleaner broke or user error?

Hello,
Can I get some confirmation on the behavior of perl-cleaner? For me it
is trying to merge packages that A) don't exist or B) are not the most
recent. Bug or what?

Please have a look at this:
- ---------------------------------------
% sudo perl-cleaner all ask
<snip>
Press Enter to see the list of ebuilds we'll be evaluating

app-editors/vim-6.4
dev-perl/Archive-Zip-1.16
dev-perl/Compress-Zlib-1.41
dev-perl/DateManip-5.44
dev-perl/Locale-gettext-1.05
dev-perl/XML-Parser-2.34
dev-perl/perl-tk-804.027
dev-util/subversion-1.2.3-r2
mail-mta/exim-4.60-r1
media-gfx/imagemagick-6.2.5.5
net-im/gaim-1.5.0
net-irc/irssi-0.8.10
net-nds/openldap-2.2.28-r3
perl-core/Test-Simple-0.62
<snip>
Fri Jun  2 22:55:16 CDT 2006 : There are no unmasked ebuilds to satisfy
app-editors/vim. Skipping
dev-perl/Locale-gettext-1.05 is not the latest available. Use version
1.03? (Y/n) n
net-irc/irssi-0.8.10_rc5-r1 is not the latest available. Use version
0.8.9-r1? (Y/n) n
perl-core/Test-Simple-0.60 is not the latest available. Use version
0.54? (Y/n) n
<snip>
Press Enter to see the final list of ebuilds to install

dev-perl/Archive-Zip

dev-perl/DateManip
=dev-perl/Locale-gettext-1.05
dev-perl/XML-Parser
dev-perl/perl-tk
dev-util/subversion

net-im/gaim
=net-irc/irssi-0.8.10_rc5-r1
net-nds/openldap
=perl-core/Test-Simple-0.60
<snip>
- ---------------------------------------
You can see here that perl-cleaner ignores vim, and tries to install a
version of irssi that doesn't even exist in the tree.

% eix irssi
* net-irc/irssi
     Available versions:  0.8.10 ~0.8.10-r3
% eix -e vim
* app-editors/vim
     Available versions:  6.4 ~7.0.17

Ideas? Help? Thanks.

Well, it turns out that perl-cleaner uses esearch, but *I* normally
don't use it. Since I had it installed on my system, perl-cleaner used
it. Since I don't normally use esearch, it had horrible outdated info. I
filed a bug to get a warning message put into perl-cleaner. We will see
what happens. http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=135409
