25 Starting with catalyst 2.0.10, make.conf and make.profile will be
26 moved from /etc to /etc/portage. This is a change in the installation
27 defaults and since Portage will prefer make.conf under /etc/portage
28 over /etc, this is an heads-up for anyone doing new installs. If you
29 have a custom or automated method to install Gentoo, be sure to check
30 if its affected by this change.
31 Releng build boxes will be updated to this catalyst version during the
32 next few days. So I expect stages built after July 30th to have
33 make.conf and make.profile on /etc/portage.
34 Current users don't need to do anything. But if you want to follow the
35 preferred location, you may want to take the chance to move the files
36 in your system(s) to the new location.
