From Gentoo Wiki
If the latest version of a package is available from more than one ebuild repository, the repository with the highest priority will be used. The priority can be set for an ebuild repository in /etc/portage/repos.conf. The Gentoo ebuild repository has a default priority set to -1000
, and the default if a priority is not set for a repository is 0
. If several ebuild repositories have the same priority (such as two or more not having any priority set, so having priority 0
), the order is undetermined - a package to install will be selected arbitrarily.
