make.profile is a symlink to your profile, so you shouldn't edit |
| 27 |
anything in there. It is managed by 'eselect profile' and i guess that |
| 28 |
/etc/make.profile is the old location, like with make.conf which used to |
| 29 |
be in /etc but is now in /etc/portage. |
| 30 |
If you want to manually override anything in your profile that is not |
| 31 |
covered by the other files in /etc/portage, e.g. unmask useflags, then |
| 32 |
you use /etc/portage/profile. Everything there has higher precedence |
| 33 |
than things in make.profile. |
