It actually isn't that important to stay abreast of the newest |
| 9 |
profiles. If you actually look at the profile, you'll see three |
| 10 |
files. One of them is packages, which just specifies the minimum |
| 11 |
versions for a couple packages (in this case baselayout, binutils, |
| 12 |
gcc, and glibc). The other imporant one is make.defaults which just |
| 13 |
specifies the default USE flags, which are overriden by any changes |
| 14 |
you have in make.conf. Probably the only thing that will change if |
| 15 |
you move to a new profile is you *might* get some new default USE |
| 16 |
flags, but since you probably have quite a few of your in in make.conf |
| 17 |
this probably won't even change anything. Also, the settings in |
| 18 |
make.conf rarely change from version to version. |
