While the following reads somewhat smoother to me, maybe it's /just/ me, so another opinion would be appreciated. The current wording is already clear, so just going with it is fine with me. Starting next week, new stages will locate make.conf and make.profile in /etc/portage instead of /etc. This change to the installation defaults only affects new systems and both locations will continue to be supported. Whether you wish to move the files to their new /etc/portage location is therefore entirely up to you. -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
