Hi all. Some questions rgd layman:
1. Seems like layman is hard-wired to contain the layman-global.txt
list of overlays. What's the reasoning behind this? My issue
w/this is that, lately, when gentoo.org was unreachable, this
hard-wiring presented considerable hangs on fetch attempts.
2. Layman refuses to overwrite an existing local overlay dir, if that
dir already exists. I've experienced the following scenario:
1. added an overlay and broke layman w/ctrl+C before it finished.
2. attempted to re-execute the add action. Layman refuses,
saying it will not overwrite the dir.
3. attempted to remove overlay w/-d. Layman refuses, saying
there's no such overlay.
4. Same refusal (obviously) when attempting to sync the
incomplete overlay.
I think layman should allow the overwrite, at least pending a (-f)orce
flag. As far as my use-cases go, the local instance of the overlay has
no importance: it's just a copy from some overlay repo.
Would appreciate comments,
Amit
