Description Victor Yegorov 2006-07-25 04:30:24 UTC

Hi.

Just installed layman (1.0.5) and wanted to change storage location (to /usr/local/overlays). But seems like it is ignoring this option. I looked through the sources and didn't found any place, where config file would have been read and parsed.

Can this be fixed, please?

The config file gets read in lines 164-169 in config.py. But I introduced an error in the default path to the config file. As a workaround you can use the -c flag with layman or you wait until layman-1.0.6 hits your local mirror. I just added it to cvs. Thanks for your report.
