Hello all,

I have an odd problem. This morning I thought I would try out an
evolution 1.4 rc1 ebuild. I extracted a bunch of files to my
/usr/local/portage and tried 'emerge -s evolution', only the
old one was found.

None of the ebuild I have under /usr/local/portage are
recognised. If I try to emerge one by specifying the ebuild
file it won't be able to emerge any of its dependancies. It's
like I have not set the PORTDIR_OVERLAY in my make.conf, but
I did. I have portage 2.0.48.


From /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask

So as you can see, newer evolution ebuilds are masked. This should apply to your PORTDIR_OVERLAY as well.
