TBH we don't really have to edit those profiles often. We/I try to keep them as static as possible. When they do change it's usually cuz somebody has some brilliant idea for some non linux which forces all other profiles to update to mask or unmask some use flag. We/I tend to request that they update it themselves. But note taken. If I have to edit something I'll try to remember to add a ChangeLog entry. -- Ned Ludd <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Gentoo Linux -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
