Thanks Alan, I have not used Vapier's overlay, but following your earlier suggestions (thank you again) I used efl: http://svn.enlightenment.org/svn/e/trunk/packaging/gentoo/Documentation/layman/overlays.xml -f -a efl I was under the impression that I have been updating efl, because I have this in my make.conf: source /var/lib/layman/make.conf Which in turn seems to contain: ================== PORTDIR_OVERLAY=" /var/lib/layman/efl $PORTDIR_OVERLAY " ================== I am a noob with layman and still trying to learn my way around it, so am I missing something simple here? PS. I resync'ed manually and ran revdep-rebuild a couple of times which rebuilt a few packages from enlightenment. Will log into it in a minute, hopefully all will be OK. -- Regards, Mick
