1 What is the best way to search all the overlays looking for one that may
2 support a utility not in the primary portage tree? What I would like is
3 a tool like eix but that uses a list of non-installed overlays that it
4 could search.

6 Also, does anyone have recommendations for finding overlays not in the
7 official list from layman -L ?

9 Thanks for any suggestions.
