PORTAGE_CONFIGROOT= kinda solves your problem. But I do admit it would |
11 |
be a lot easier dealing with a variable vs having to parse the symlink |
12 |
to figure out the profile. |

If this change does happen I'd suggest that we support make.profile |
15 |
symlinks as long as they exist unless the make.conf defines the |
16 |
variable. If variable exists it should override. |
