Description Ross Girshick 2003-06-30 11:20:53 UTC 
In portage 2.0.48-r1 portdbapi.cpv_exists() acts incorrectly is a portage 
overlay is specified.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. set an overlay in /etc/make.conf (make sure this overlay doesn't contain sys-
apps/portage-2.0.48-r1)
2. import portage
   print portage.portdb.cpv_exists('sys-apps/portage-2.0.48-r1')



Expected Results:  
1

I'll attach a patch to fix this.

I'm not certain what your patch did except remove redundency...
portage-2.0.48-r3 has multiple overlay support and something
similar to what you did.
Comment 3 Ross Girshick 2003-07-02 06:09:19 UTC 
The logic in the unpatched version assumes that if an overlay is defined, then the package must be in that overlay. Else the package must not exist. The patch makes it check the portage tree if the overlay is defined _and_ the package is not in the overlay. I'll check that this is fixed in -r3.
