Eventually it will go away, likely without much warning (just as there |
| 11 |
was little warning with the recent move to get rid of 13.0). |

However, you're probably fine for many months. |

There is a small risk that something might break on 17.0 because |

Other than that I don't see much obvious benefit from the change. It |

is mostly to bring Gentoo more in line with what has emerged as the |

standard way of doing things. A lot of the old design predates the |
| 21 |
standards. |
