1 in any repos.conf there is a
2 location=/path/to/repo
3 is this path absolute or does it follow ROOT or PORTAGE_CONFIG ?
4
5 I tried to add location=${ROOT}/path/to/repo but emerge
6 would only accept this for the master gentoo repo:
7 [gentoo]
8 location = ${ROOT}/usr/portage
9 ..
10 [tmv3-target-overlay]
11 location = ${ROOT}/usr/local/portage/tmv3-target-overlay
12
13 and emerge gives me:
14 emerge -aNDuv world
15 !!! Section 'tmv3-target-overlay' in repos.conf has location attribute set to nonexistent directory:
16 '${ROOT}/usr/local/portage/tmv3-target-overlay'
