Well, at least some overlays support fetching via http. `layman -L` |
| 21 |
shows all available URLs for fetching. In /etc/layman/layman.cfg, you |
| 22 |
can also specify a proxy. In theory, that should allow you to fetch all |
| 23 |
these overlays. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
The remaining problem is: How do you tell layman to prefer the http |
| 26 |
connection over the native protocol? I haven't found such an option. |
| 27 |
Maybe you have to try it out yourself or open a bug for a feature request. |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
Worst case: create your own overlay list which only contains the http |
| 30 |
connections. The documentation shows how to do this. |

Hope this helps, |
