24 This is because you followed the instructions from the layman ebuild and
25 added 'source /usr/portage/local/layman/make.conf' to /etc/make.conf. eix
26 unlike portage does not support 'source' yet. The next release of eix will,
27 however, support this. Until then you need to manually put the contents
28 of /usr/portage/local/layman/make.conf into /etc/make.conf for eix to notice
29 those overlays.
