What I have: cat /etc/make.conf <snip> LAYMAN PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" source /var/lib/layman/make.conf SO should this be (?): PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/var/lib/layman" cat /var/lib/layman/make.conf: ##PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="$PORTDIR_OVERLAY" Here is what I get: # layman -a printer-drivers * Failed to add overlay "printer-drivers". * Error was: Overlay "printer-drivers" already in the local list! # ls /var/lib/layman/ cache_ac494f50f5736be7871962c0dec7b3bb.xml make.conf.old.layman printer-drivers make.conf overlays.xml zugaina ls -R /usr/local/portage/net-print brother-mfc6490cw-cups brother-mfc6490cw-lpr ./brother-mfc6490cw-cups: Manifest brother-mfc6490cw-cups-1.1.2_p2.ebuild ./brother-mfc6490cw-lpr: brother-mfc6490cw-lpr-1.1.2_p2.ebuild # eix printer-driver No matches found. # emerge -pv printer-drivers These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done! emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "printer-drivers". Obviously I've got something wrong.....(following too many guides). Ideas? James
