I can run "layman --list" to see the list of overlays, but then when i run "layan --list --verbose" to get the descriptions I get an error:

$ layman --list --verbose
* Fetching remote list,...
Failed to fetch overlay list!
 Original Error was: global name 'mpath' is not defined
* Download failed.

Comment 3 Albert W. Hopkins 2011-12-02 19:27:53 UTC

This is fixed at least in the version of layman I have installed:

necropolis / # layman --version
2.0.0_rc3
necropolis / # layman --list --verbose | head
