The way I do this is I add the overlays in layman but do not add them |

to make.conf. Then I symlink individual directories from the layman |

overlay directory to my local overlay, which is in make.conf. That way |

I keep up to date with the one or two packages I need without pulling |
12 |
in the whole overlay. |
