If you'd like to try this out (with portage-2.1_preX), simply copy metadata_overlay.py into /usr/lib/portage/pym/cache/ and add portdbapi.auxdbmodule = cache.metadata_overlay.database to /etc/portage/modules. |

/var/cache/edb/dep/, so I assume that it's working properly. Is it normal for |

/var/cache/edb/dep/${PORTDIR}/ to be re-created (it's still empty) when this new |

module is in use? |
