Hi Toby!

Unfortunately it is, especially since I wasn't able to make autounmask
work properly. However, it's really just a matter of doing something
like:
ls -1 /usr/portage/local/layman/perl-experimental/dev-perl/ | awk '{ print "dev-perl/" $1 " ~amd64"}' >>/etc/portage/package.keywords
(replacing amd64 with x86 if that's the case) in order to unmask all the
packages in the overlay.
This "standardisation" will hopefully lead to a quicker inclusion of
many of the ebuilds in mainstream portage (maybe ;-)).
Michele.
