and that will install dir2ogg-0.9.1.

Not yet. There's gotta be more to it than that.

I ran the above command then did #emerge -C dir2ogg
then #emerge -pv dir2ogg:

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild  N    ] media-sound/dir2ogg-0.8  0 kB

You probably didn't execute the previous command correctly. If I run "eix dir2ogg" that's the output:

* media-sound/dir2ogg
     Available versions:  0.8 ~0.9.1 ~0.9.2
     Installed:           none
     Homepage:            http://badcomputer.org/linux/dir2ogg/
     Description:         Converts MP3, M4A, and WAV files to OGG format.

This means that 0.9.1 and 0.9.2 are masked by ~.
The only really correct way to emerge these packages is to add them to package.keywords, as explained in the handbook.

About /etc/portage/package.keywords:

Go here and have a (small) read.
You'll find that probably you're doing something wrong on your side.
