Description Michael Siebert 2007-07-29 20:21:00 UTC

I made a list of different overlays and included it in /etc/layman/layman.cfg. I can add overlays from that list with "layman -a", but a "layman -L" does not show these overlays.

My file:

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<layman>

	<overlay
	  contact="aballier@gentoo.org"
	  name="aballier"
	  src="http://overlays.gentoo.org/svn/dev/aballier"
	  type="svn">
	  <link>
	    http://overlays.gentoo.org/svn/dev/aballier
	  </link>
	  <description>
	    Overlay belonging to gentoo developer aballier.
	  </description>
	</overlay>
</layman>

Since "layman -a" works correctly, we can assume that I added it right in layman.cfg

Reproducible: Always

Use the "-k" flag. The default behavior of layman will change with the next version.
