Portage should have been warning such users about using a deprecated profile for some time now. So, they should have updated to a new profile by now. Surely most people have synced portage sometime recently and done an emerge -uD world. If somebody is using a portage snapshot from two years ago, they have more problems than a deprecated profile. You do realize that for the most part, gentoo versions don't mean very much, right? A gentoo install is as current as the portage tree, no matter what installer was used. -Steve -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
