Hello together,

I am new to xmonad. I installed it on my gentoo system using the haskell
overlay and "emerge xmonad".

No I want to change the configuration:
I tried uncommenting the following lines in
/etc/portage/savedconfig/x11-wm/xmonad-0.4.1:

(Line 69)
import qualified XMonadContrib.HintedTile
(Line 248)
, XMonadContrib.HintedTile.tall nmaster delta ratio

and did emerge -av xmonad:
Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild   R   ] x11-wm/xmonad-0.4.1  USE="extensions savedconfig" 0 kB

XMonadContrib/HintedTile.hs:55:13: Not in scope: `modifyLayout'

What am I doing wrong?
Thanks!
