I am using sys-fs/squashmount from mv overlay. After syncing portage, gemato is unable to check signatures failing with: "ERROR:root:Top-level Manifest not found in /usr/portage" The problem is also reported here: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-8177874.html?sid=a01ac0dc95d8eef8b6c4aa11485d1f98 Added sync-rsync-verify-metamanifest = yes sync-openpgp-key-path = /var/lib/gentoo/gkeys/keyrings/gentoo/release/pubring.gpg to /etc/portage/repos.conf/gentoo.conf, but no change. ls -als /var/lib/gentoo/gkeys/keyrings/gentoo/release/ total 52 4 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 feb 6 02:20 . 4 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 feb 4 18:37 .. 4 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1928 feb 6 02:20 gkey.seeds 36 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 35799 feb 6 02:20 pubring.gpg 0 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 feb 6 02:20 secring.gpg 4 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1200 feb 6 02:20 trustdb.gpg There are Manifest and Manifest.files.gz in /usr/portage [ebuild R ] app-portage/gemato-11.0::gentoo USE="blake2 bzip2 gpg -lzma -sha3 {-test}" PYTHON_TARGETS="python2_7 python3_6 -pypy -python3_4 -python3_5" 0 KiB [ebuild R ] sys-apps/portage-2.3.24-r1::gentoo USE="(ipc) native-extensions rsync-verify (xattr) -build -doc -epydoc -gentoo-dev (-selinux)" PYTHON_TARGETS="python2_7 python3_6 -pypy -python3_4 -python3_5" 0 KiB I know that squashmount is an unofficial package and I understand if you close the bug as invalid.

If this is about overlayfs, then it's a known issue. I've sent a spec update to the ml yesterday about it and I'm waiting for update on security implications of the necessary changes.
I encountered this problem as well. /usr/portage is an overlayfs mount (though I don't use squashmount).
