39 OK, I've found out what's going on. I my layman.cfg I have:
40
41 overlays: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/overlays/repositories.xml
42 http://belak.sbboard.com/gentoo/overlay.xml
43
44 The second line was added as per instructions in order to be able to use
45 the belak overlay since it's not in the official layman list (at least
46 it wasn't back then.) I totally forgot I did that :-/
