As some of you may already be aware, I added a new global USE flag for kernel ebuilds today. This flag is symlink, and will force the re-creation of your /usr/src/linux link to point to the newly installed kernel sources.
How about copying the previous /usr/src/linux/.config over as well? ;)
I'll strike you a deal. Lets start a vote. Whoever would like this additional functionality email me back saying so :)
There are some technical reasons against this, but if there is enough interest, I will see what I can do
I think it is a horrible idea. Not everyone knows they should do a "make oldconfig" when using an old config file. Those that do know this shouldn't have a problem just copying their .config themselves.
