Description Billy DeVincentis 2008-09-23 21:52:44 UTC
What I have noticed and maybe this is possible but I just don't know how to do it, it seems that in order to browse overlays you must open a new himerge page, it would be great to be able to add overlays to your main portage browser and have everything together so that when you are browsing, you can see for example -- the vmware-workstation 6.05 ebuild that is installed and in your private overlay seemless while you are browsing portage. And possibly have it show up as being from an overlay. This way it's unnecessary to upon individual himerge pages for each of your overlays. Also, the amount of time it took to calculate all of the packages on my system seems unreasonable, my system has approximately 2500 emerged packages and I clicked all and left it alone all night only to return with it still calculating. Thanks. 

Reproducible: Always

This is pretty much more a feature enhancement than a bug report.

Please report back to the new himer trac site:

Closing this bug.
