there was a change in layman - I never saw it documented but |
33 |
apparently some devs on the pro-audio list knew about it - where |
34 |
layman changed the path between /usr/local/portage and |
35 |
/usr/portage/local. I think my solution was to use layman to remove |
36 |
all overlays, then change my path in make.conf, then re-import the |
37 |
overlays I was using. (vmware and pro-audio) IIRC corretly after |
38 |
removing the overlay probably removed directories by hand, etc., and |
39 |
did some cleanup. Anyway, after messing around with it things started |
40 |
working again and I haven't had trouble since. |
41 |
|
42 |
Note that I didn't have any private overlays and this happened |
43 |
sometime back - maybe 2-3 months ago - so your results may vary or not |
44 |
even be related. |

|
46 |
You can probably find the thread in the proaudio users list archive if |
47 |
you want to review what the dev told me. |

Hope this helps, |
