Yeah, /etc/make.profile is normally a symlink into the portage tree, so anything there won't survive a sync (without other measures, inappropriate here). According to the portage manpage, /etc/portage/profile/ can be used as a place for sysadmins to put files to locally override the normal profile. So try creating /etc/portage/profile/use.mask, and putting the "-qt3" entry there. -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
