It was pointed out to me by zlin that this does not help with installing |
| 13 |
`missing' `master' overlays. This is a good point. However it is possible that |
| 14 |
even though an overlay is missing, ebuilds from another installed overlay or |
| 15 |
main tree or a local overlay can satisfy dependencies. Further it is possible |
| 16 |
that two overlays have a mutual dependency on eachother. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Maybe these possibilities are only theoretical. |
