I'm working on the install for my friend still. Since KDE4 wants to
stay in bed, I thought I would try KDE3 from the overlay. I read not
long ago that it is still somewhat kicking. So I installed layman and
added the overlay. I then added this line to make.conf:
source /var/lib/layman/make.conf
When I add that, I get errors like this:
!!! Parse error in '/etc/make.conf': source command failed: [Errno 2]
No such file or directory: '/var/lib/layman/make.config'

I have googled and followed some Gentoo docs and this error just keeps
popping up. What am I doing wrong?
Keep in mind I am doing a 32 bit install on a 64 bit machine. I am
following the guide that was linked to earlier.
Ideas?
I think you have run into the fact that you only put that source line
after you have added your first overlay -- is this the case?
I did do it afterwards because when I read the guide, it said to do it
afterwards. If you do it earlier portage will complain. It appears
that has changed. What do I do to fix this mess?
