received the master set-up error after the update this morning. The file in the path doesn't exist however.

~ # emerge --sync

eyoung100: created the repo_name and added x-portage. Still doing a emerge --sync it complains

You need to talk to the repo maintainer as the layout.conf specifically states as above but emerge will keep complaing until masters=gentoo

also check in
/etc/portage/make.conf
if you have
PORTDIR_OVERLAY=whatever
" This variable is deprecated in favor of settings in repos.conf. This variable is a space-delimited list of directories. "
https://devmanual.gentoo.org/eclass-reference/make.conf/index.html
if you have moved from layman to eselect repository
you might want to delete it |
