Those are recent additions to the profiles. At any rate, I only started using the KDE one this year. If Laszlo has default/linux/amd64/10.0 as his profile already (that's what I used to do), he's going to have to do an awful lot of work with USE flags. A full re-installation may be easier in the end. Any time I do a fresh installation, I back the whole thing up to external disk at significant stages of the operation so that I can start again (if I need to) from much further on. > For anything else, use "default/linux/amd64/10.0/desktop".
