layman -f is deprecated. Just do a layman -L and it will update
automatically.

Note, however, that it only lists overlays that you have the necessary
tools for, i.e. an overlay managed in a Subversion repository is only
shown if you have Subversion installed, and so on. The most popular
management tools for overlays are Subversion and GIT, so be sure to
merge them, too. There's a few more: rsync is already installed, of
course, then there's Mercurial, Bazaar, and I think the Haskell overlay
is even done in Darcs.
