Description Marcin Kowalski 2007-03-19 12:37:16 UTC
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)
