You don;t need to copy an ebuild to an overlay to re-digest it, you can
do it with the version i the portage tree. You can even do it when
emerging, with emerge --digest, but be aware this will redigest all
packages emerged, including dependencies.

However you do it, think very carefully first. Package digests are a
security measure, to ensure none of the files you are installing have
been tampered with. By regdigesting a package, you're discarding this
check. Before considering this, remove the file(s) from $DISTDIR, sync
again and try to emerge the package normally.
