Description Nicolas Litchinko 2007-02-20 18:49:35 UTC 
* DEFINED OVERLAYS DON'T EXIST!

This probably happens with other versions too.

I was able to work around (fix?) this issue by editing line 297 of /usr/bin/g-cpan.

unless (keys %{$gcpan_run->{portage_bases}} > 1)
becomes
unless (keys %{$gcpan_run->{portage_bases}} >= 1)
and g-cpan won't exit early when you only have one overlay defined in PORTDIR_OVERLAY.

fixed in svn. sorry about that, seeing this makes it feel even sillier to have missed earlier.
