Sorry Peter. I think you know I'm pretty remedial at these things.

I'm not clear where I'm using n HTTP proxy using the pro-audio
overlay. I run the command 'layman -s pro-audio' and I see updates
coming in:

Currently my make.conf file looks like this:

VIDEO_CARDS="radeon"
PORTDIR_OVERLAY=""
PORTDIR_OVERLAY="${PORTDIR_OVERLAY} /usr/local/portage"
PORTDIR_OVERLAY="${PORTDIR_OVERLAY} /usr/portage/local/layman/pro-audio"
#source /usr/portage/local/layman/make.conf
lightning ~ #

Clearly it's going to the net to get this info but whether it's
happening with HTTP proxy I'm not clear. Where would I look beyond
what I've shown here to get you an answer?
