I guess you mean is it safe to remove older symlinks? Yes. I would not |
| 18 |
remove the profile files themselves under |
| 19 |
usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/. |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
The symlink should be something like: |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
# ls -la /etc/make.profile |
| 24 |
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 54 Sep 2 |
| 25 |
2006 /etc/make.profile -> /usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/2006.1/desktop |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
if you are running a desktop, or server, if you are running a server on that |
| 28 |
machine. |
