root@lisa /home/gentoo/portage-tree/sys-devel/distcc # repoman

We're not in PORTDIR... setting to: /home/gentoo/portage-tree

RepoMan scours the neighborhood...

*** the local copy of metadata.dtd needs to be refetched, doing that now

Not really, where is the problem ?
Comment 2 Lisa Seelye (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-08-16 09:15:56 UTC 
Shouldn't repoman update the .dtd in the overlay instead of the real portdir?
Comment 3 Brian Harring (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-08-16 10:20:27 UTC 
Actually, it fetches metadata.dtd to DISTDIR, then transfers it to portage.CACHE_PATH; /var/cache/edb/metadata.dtd being it's normal location- it's not tree specific at this point, since we don't bundle it w/ any trees :)
