Description Richard Yao (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-11-05 16:47:34 UTC 
Recent stage3 tarballs have switched to using /etc/portage/make.conf, but app-portage/layman still references /etc/make.conf in pkg_postinst. It should be modified to say /etc/portage/make.conf if ${ROOT}/etc/portage/make.conf exists.

I don't know if it has to be written in a more sophisticated way other than a simple if. Anyway I've included the simple change.

I had already changed that for rc4 and -9999.  I was intending on removing the 1.4 series as soon as 2.0 was stabilized.  I was intending that would be before Christmas, so wasn't going to worry about it.

Thank you for the patch... applied.
