I agree with the other post about gcc but you should also update portage |
| 16 |
shortly after that. The newer portage is able to handle more issues for |
| 17 |
you and may save you some time. So, I would update gcc, portage then |
| 18 |
give world a try. If it looks bad, try system first. That could |
| 19 |
correct some things. |

The only other gotcha I can think of is openrc/baselayout. Do NOT |
| 22 |
reboot until you are sure your config files are updated. The only thing |
| 23 |
I really had to change myself was my net file. Their script works well. |

Anothet thing, I would just do a emerge -e qorld and call it a day. You |
| 26 |
will have a few blockers, most openrc stuff, but those can be handled |
| 27 |
quickly. Just make sure you don't have a power problem. ;-) |
