With the current default setting of separate databases for the
local eix cache (normally /var/cache/eix/portage.eix) and
for the remote eix cache (/var/cache/eix/remote.eix),
KEEP_VIRTUALS=true makes no sense:
The purpose of KEEP_VIRTUALS=true was to update the local
cache data without changing the remote data with eix-update
(if both are in the same file).
However, especially if you set REMOTE_DEFAULT you should call
eix-remote add1
after every eix-sync so that your local eix cache is
copied into the remote eix cache
(see the manpage how to do this automatically with eix-sync).
