i have extra overlay sources defined in /etc/layman/layman.cfg like this -------------------------------------------------------------------- overlays : http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/overlays/layman-global.txt http://berkano.net/files/gentoo/layman.xml http://gimpel.ath.cx/~tom/layman-enlightenment.list http://student.agh.edu.pl/~sarven/sarven.txt -------------------------------------------------------------------- layman -L does not show some overlays on the list. but i can add/sync/delete them if i know their names. (e.g. the berkano overlay does not appear in layman -L output, but layman can add and sync it with no problems) when you add one of these overlays layman -l lists them properly. previous layman version (1.0.9 or 1.0.8) had the same problem. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. add extra overlay lists to layman.cfg 2. do layman -f followed by layman -L - some of them won't appear. 3. try to fetch the overlay specified on one of additional lists, but missing from layman -L output. Actual Results: layman adds/synces/removes the overlay properly and (if it was added or synced) lists it in the output of layman -l . Expected Results: layman should list the extra overlays in layman -L all the time.
This is expected behaviour. Please consult the man page and check the -k option (or no_check in the configuration)
