Yes sorta 1.4. |
| 18 |
I still have production servers in place that were based on the |
| 19 |
Gentoo-1.2/4 era. The smooth migration path away from 1.4 profiles |
| 20 |
correlates to having a proper default-linux/$ARCH/gcc2 profile. |
| 21 |
So far it looks as if only x86 has made this move while every other arch |
| 22 |
appears to be letting the <=1.4 profiles rot. |
