Hi all, |

Soon we will move all profiles from the one location into the other. |
| 4 |
The short reason why we do this, is simply because gentoo-x86 has |
| 5 |
decided to restructure their profiles tree a while ago, and we best |
| 6 |
"follow" their structure. For Linux users this has the added advantage |
| 7 |
of inheriting the masks etc. from Gentoo Linux, which makes sense. |
| 8 |
|

Before we start deprecating the profiles, I'd like to ask the |
| 10 |
adventurous at heart to try out the new profiles and report if |
| 11 |
everything works (as normal). |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
In order to do so execute the following operations using bash: |
| 14 |
$ cd ${EPREFIX}/etc/ |
| 15 |
$ MYPROFILE=$(readlink make.profile) |
| 16 |
$ rm make.profile |
| 17 |
$ ln -s ${MYPROFILE/default-prefix/prefix} make.profile |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
Then verify with `emerge --version` that your profile points to |
| 20 |
something starting with "prefix/XXXX" instead of "default-prefix/XXXX". |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Afterwards, all should work as before. Please report! |
