4 Hi.
5
6 Following the July 24th thread about changing the default location of
7 make.conf and make.profile in the new stages, I propose to commit 2
8 news items in 2 or 3 days.
9 The first one (this one) is directed to all users and informs about
10 the change and what to do. The second one (next email) will be
11 directed to catalyst users.
12 This news item should be presented to as many users as possible.
13 Following Fabian's request in the previous thread, I'm trying to
14 restrict it to default/linux profiles only. I don't know if it's
15 possible to filter with default/linux/*, if there are other
16 alternatives or if we will have to list *all* relevant profiles (the
17 latter case is not appealing).
18
19 Does anyone have any comments about this news item?

23 Title: make.conf and make.profile move to /etc/portage
24 Author: Jorge Manuel B. S. Vicetto <jmbsvicetto@g.o>

27 Revision: 1
28 News-Item-Format: 1.0
29 Display-If-Installed: sys-apps/portage
30 Display-If-Profile: default/linux/*
31
32 Starting next week, new stages will have make.conf and make.profile
33 moved from /etc to /etc/portage. This is a change in the installation
34 defaults, that will only affect new installs so it doesn't affect
35 current systems.
36
37 Current users don't need to do anything. But if you want to follow the
38 gfepreferred location, you may want to take the chance to move the files
39 in your system(s) to the new location.
