I think you have run into the fact that you only put that source line after you have added your first overlay -- is this the case? -- Your life is like a penny. You're going to lose it.

No such file or directory: '/var/lib/layman/make.config' ^^ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 64 Sep 3 22:49 /var/lib/layman/make.conf That's either a typo or the source of the problem :) andrea

I did do it afterwards because when I read the guide, it said to do it afterwards. If you do it earlier portage will complain. It appears that has changed. What do I do to fix this mess? Dale :-) :-)

I actually copied it from there. Ideas? Dale :-) :-)

make.config != make.conf :)
