I was at my folks house earlier this week. My mom's machine was set up |
| 2 |
quite a long time ago and hadn't been updated in at least a year - |
| 3 |
maybe two. I wasn't even aware she was using Linux. I simply set up a |
| 4 |
machine, gave her an account and walked away. she told me a few days |
| 5 |
ago she was using it but was having some trouble with Firefox and |
| 6 |
asked me to look at it. |

I ran emerge --sync which ran correctly as far as I could tell at the |
| 9 |
time. I then tried emerge -pvDuN system and was greeted with a message |
| 10 |
about how the profile wasn't set and the system couldn't/wouldn't |
| 11 |
perform an emerge. /etc/make.profile was pointing at a 2005 profile. |
| 12 |
When I looked in at profiles that were available there were only 2006 |
| 13 |
& 2007 profiles. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Did this machine just get messed up over time and I didn't notice or |
| 16 |
did emerge --sync remove the profile from the system thus breaking |
| 17 |
everything? |

Thanks, |
