[eix-sync] Check if layman binary exists #92

Closed samip5 closed 3 years ago

samip5 commented 3 years ago

It should check if it exists before trying to use it.

# eix-sync
 * Syncing all portage overlays
/usr/bin/eix-sync: line 396: layman: command not found
 * layman -S failed

Won't fix. If you do not have layman, do not configure eix-sync to use layman. There is too much automagic in eix-sync already.

That would make sense then. I had totally missed the config file for it.
