Gentoo devs and arch testers did a good job as usual.
I'll do the switch on the Gnome system in the next days but up to now I
can say that the switch to 17.0 is a _lot_ less painful than switching
major compiler version.

I've done two machines now (6 more to go!) and it's been mostly
painless. I had the grub and cdrdao rebuild problems, solved by
upgrading to grub2 and applying a patch to lame for cdrdao. I also had
pygtk fail, but once the `emerge -e world` finished, I just had to
rebuild it and it was fine.

Are the maintainers picking up these patches to release a version bump for
packages that won't emerge with profile 17.0?
Well, I got the patch from the cdrdao bugreport. Someone sent the patch
for lame upstream, and of course they said you should be patching
cdrdao... so who knows.
