Run eix-remote update to add all layman overlays to eix's database, then |

The way I do this is to layman -a the overlay but not put it in |
| 14 |
make.conf. Then I symlink only the ebuilds I want to my local overlay. By |
| 15 |
symlinking instead of copying, I automatically get updates to that |
| 16 |
package. |
