Hrm, I don't see any warnings for the emacs overlay using the following (native, not Portage) configuration: location = /var/paludis/repositories/emacs format = ebuild sync = svn+http://overlays.gentoo.org/svn/proj/emacs/emacs-overlay master_repository = gentoo write_cache = /var/cache/paludis/metadata/ Usually when people get errors with an overlay it's because of a missing profiles/repo_name file, which isn't the case here. -- Ciaran McCreesh
