This is fixed in svn r3750. Support for licenses and arch.list are in svn r3751 and r3752, respectively. This has been released in 2.1.1_pre2-r2. |
Currently, repoman only checks use.local.desc in the portage tree and not in overlays. I changed line 529 of repoman (portage-2.1.1_pre-r2) from: mylist=portage.grabfile(portdir+"/profiles/use.local.desc") To: mylist=portage.grabfile(portdir_overlay+"/profiles/use.local.desc") This fixed it, but I was sure it would break checking portage's use.local.desc, but when I tried it with a few small tests, it worked fine. However, I'm sure a better solution would be combining the use.local.desc of both the portage tree and the overlay, but I had no idea how to do this since I don't know Python. This issue also affects checking licenses and probably other things too.
