11 Thanks for the suggestions, I've tried 2004.0 .1 .2 .3 with similar
12 results as below.
13
14 I also tried coping a binary package into /usr/portage/packages/... and
15 emerging it with the -K option but that didn't go either.
16
17
18 # rm make.profile
19 # ln -s ../usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/2004.2 make.profile
20 # emerge portage
21
22 !!! Your current profile is deprecated and not supported anymore.
23 !!! Please upgrade to the following profile if possible:
24 default-linux/x86/2005.0
25
26 To upgrade do the following steps:
27 # emerge -n '>=sys-apps/portage-2.0.51'
28 # cd /etc/
29 # rm make.profile
30 # ln -s ../usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/2005.0 make.profile
31
32 # Gentoo has switched to 2.6 as the defaults for headers/kernels. If
33 you wish
34 # to use 2.4 headers/kernels, then you should do the following to upgrade:
35 # emerge -n '>=sys-apps/portage-2.0.51'
36 # cd /etc/
37 # rm make.profile
38 # ln -s ../usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/2005.0/2.4 make.profile
39

41 # http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoo-upgrading.xml
42 # http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/migration-to-2.6.xml
43
44
45 !!! 'str' object has no attribute 'insert'
46 !!! 'rm -Rf /usr/portage/profiles; emerge sync' may fix this. If it does
47 !!! not then please report this to bugs.gentoo.org and, if possible, a dev
48 !!! on #gentoo (irc.freenode.org)
