eselect news has a new notice, advising of the pending change of the |
| 4 |
presumed location of the layman directory from /usr/local/portage/layman |
| 5 |
to /var/lib/layman. It offers three ways to deal with this location |
| 6 |
change. I chose alternative A. (actually moving the directory and |
| 7 |
updating make.conf and layman make.conf) and wanted to do it before I |
| 8 |
forgot about it. |

However, until layman is actually upgraded to version 1.3x, the |
| 11 |
script/executable will reference /usr/local/portage/layman and fail. So |
| 12 |
layman users choosing alternative A. now may want to add a step; after |
| 13 |
moving the directory, put a soft link in the /usr/local/portage pointing |
| 14 |
to the new location; i.e. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
cd /usr/local/portage; ln -s /var/lib/layman layman |
