-o, --overlay-tree
Include package from overlays in the search path.
I use it this way at times:
equery list -po <package>
That tells it to include packages that are in my local overlay, or
other overlays as well.
May not help but it might.
I did find "-o" and tried it as part of list, and it does work.
However, it does not seem as if "-o" is an option to the "keywords"
command. (It seems to be command specific, with "check", "has",
"hasuse", and "list" supporting it.)
Unfortunately, it does not look like "keywords" supports the "-o"
(overlay) option.
It seems the man page is not complete. It mentions the -k of
--keywords option to the m or meta module, but doesn't actually mention
the y (keywords) module itself (which IS shown by equery -h)
equery y package
is not the same as
equery m -k package
The former omits overlays, but the latter seems to include them. The
two have different output formats, but seem to include the same
information.
