I always found this annoying...
How come when I emerge something, my 'esearch' isn't updated until the next
time I do an 'esync'?

But I *DO* have it installed....

Then if I do an 'esync' it shows (and in some kind of ironic slap in my
face, THEN it shows me there is an update, so I have to re-emerge it to be
current):

Why can't portage just be smart enough (and "smart" is a very generous term
for the code neede to update this) to update whatever
record/file/log/whatever it is that shows what I have installed?!
This seems so silly and like a 0.0.3 kind of feature to put in to portage.
I've added this as a bug since I didn't see one in there already:
