I have an local overlay, which contains some ebuild written by myself or
copied from bugzilla.
When I execute eix-test-obsolete, it display the following wierd thing:
Installed packages with a version not in the database (or masked):
[I] app-misc/beagle ([EMAIL PROTECTED]/27/08): Search tool that
ransacks
your personal information space to find whatever you're looking for
[I] net-ftp/proftpd ([EMAIL PROTECTED]/20/08): An advanced and very
configurable FTP server.
[I] x11-misc/qterm ([EMAIL PROTECTED]/07/08): QTerm is a BBS client in
Linux.
[1] /usr/local/portage
And I also notice that when I execute command update-eix, the following is
printed:
Reading Portage settings ..
Building database (/var/cache/eix) ..
[0] "gentoo" /usr/portage/ (cache: metadata)
Reading 100%
[1] "" /usr/portage/local/layman/sajinet (cache: none)
Reading 100%
[2] "berkano" /usr/portage/local/layman/berkano (cache: none)
Reading 100%
[3] "" /usr/local/portage (cache: none)
Reading 100%
Applying masks ..
Database contains 12454 packages in 152 categories.
It seems that there is no cache in the portage overlays, so update-eix
can't get the package information in these overlay.
What can I do to get the local overlay picked by eix?
