43 Thanks Alan,
44
45
46 I have not used Vapier's overlay, but following your earlier suggestions
47 (thank you again) I used efl:
48
49 http://svn.enlightenment.org/svn/e/trunk/packaging/gentoo/Documentation/layman/overlays.xml
50 -f -a efl
51
52 I was under the impression that I have been updating efl, because I have this
53 in my make.conf:
54
55 source /var/lib/layman/make.conf
56
57 Which in turn seems to contain:
58 ==================
59 PORTDIR_OVERLAY="
60 /var/lib/layman/efl
61 $PORTDIR_OVERLAY
62 "
63 ==================
64
65 I am a noob with layman and still trying to learn my way around it, so am I
66 missing something simple here?
67
68 PS. I resync'ed manually and ran revdep-rebuild a couple of times which
69 rebuilt a few packages from enlightenment. Will log into it in a minute,
70 hopefully all will be OK.
