app-shell/push-3.4-r1 breaks eix

Related to #27 I upgraded to app-shell/push-3.4-r1 yesterday and then eix reported..

If I downgrade to app-shells/push-3.4 all is good again.

Apologies if I should have reported this in vaeth/push but since its the interplay between eix and push felt it fitted in here ok.

Dupe of https://github.com/vaeth/eix/issues/63: The gentoo ebuilds for eix and push both install in a broken way (although they work with each other). The versions from the mv overlay both install correctly, but won't work with the broken installations from the gentoo ebuilds.

Sorry, that was even one that I reported and I read before posting.

Both Portage and the mv overlay have app-portage/eix-0.36.7, I've tried unmerging and re-emerging but it always pulls in the portage version rather than the one from mv which then aligns with app-shells/push-3.4-r1 is there a way to force a package to be installed from an overlay if versions are the same? Is that why -r1 is appended to app-shells/push-3.4-r1?

Is that why -r1 is appended to app-shells/push-3.4-r1?

Yes. It seems I should always do the same for eix and zram-init as well.

You can explicitly choose the version from the overlay by appending ::mv.
