The ebuild name doesn't match the directory that it is in. Did you want to
call the directory xfce4-cvs by chance?

I am attempting to create an ebuild. I've read the docs/man pages several
times! As I understand it
1. If I define PORTDIR_OVERLAY as /usr/local/portage I can create and put my
ebuilds in there and they will not be overwritten. I created this directory
and uncommented the line in /etc/make.conf
2. I then moved to /usr/local/portage and created x11-wm/xfce4 directory
tree. In xfce4 I then copied an xfce4 ebuild from /usr/portage/x11-wm/xfce4
along with the files directory.
3. I modified the ebuild to have essentially only the headers, description,
set some variables and echo them. I change to
/usr/local/portage/x11-wm/xfce4 and run
emerge xfce4-cvs-3.9-r1.ebuild
(I've also given /usr/local/portage/x11-wm/xfce4/.... as a full path).
The result is that emerge tells me:
Calculating dependencies. ebuidl for xfce4-cvs-3.9-r1 does not exist at
/usr/portage/x11-wm/xfce4-cvs/xfce4-cvs-3.9-r1.ebuild.
Of course it doesn't! The ebuild is in /usr/local/portage where I'm running
from.
Why is emerge trying to look for the ebuild in /usr/portage and not in
/usr/local/portage?
Thanks.
Here's the ebuild.
