I has just completely removed layman
(In reply to Reva Denis from comment #2) > I has just completely removed layman Sorry, wrong thread :&
Is this still a problem? Please try layman-2.4.3
I ran into this same issue (using version 2.4.3) when I changed the default location in the config file. It appears that it occurs when the location doesn't exist. For instance I changed the location to '/var/db/repos/layman' but kept getting this error until I manually created the layman directory inside '/var/db/repos' and then it worked fine
I'm still receiving this error: * Adding overlay... * Warning: an installed db file was not found at: ['/var/lib/layman/cache_930c3ed4a5f89f74fd810585751a06e3.xml'] * Exception: Overlay "vifino-overlay" does not exist. * CLI: Errors occurred processing action add * Exception: Overlay "vifino-overlay" does not exist.
Update: layman-updater -R resolved it for me.
"layman-updater -R" followed by "layman -L" fixes this
