You also mention adding the overlay and "make sure you set up your

repos.conf for anything. What am I supposed to do with it?
In /etc/portage/repos.conf you should add

[DEFAULT]
class-overrides = hardened-dev

This causes the eclass from the overlay to override the default eclass
from the portage tree.  man portage and you'll see.  I'll add a blurb
about it in the howto.

Ah, I see. Otherwise the hardened-dev ebuilds would use the hardened-dev
eclass, but ebuilds from other repos would use their own copy (or the
default copy).


I'm not sure this is still the case, somewhere in the internet is written that now priority is given from the order of appareance in the $PORTDIR_OVERLAY. with the leftmost being the lowest priority and the rightmost the higher priority. Cannot give much more explanation, maybe portage guys can (including history hopefully)
