But only if you in fact switch the new profile on, right? There seems to be another thing afoot, though. All (or nearly so) python libraries are due for rebuild because of PYTHON_TARGETS="python3_5 -python3_4" Where does that come from? I have never fully understood this and similar variables. It seems to be kind of like USE but also separate from USE. Is it something I can control, as a user? Where is it configured? Is this change tied to the above profile transition? -- Please don't Cc: me privately on mailing lists and Usenet, if you also post the followup to the list or newsgroup.
