Before changing the profile are you clean with emerge -pvDuN
--with-bdeps=y world? (Or at a minimum 'system').

Personally I want to be careful about changing profiles with my system
not totally up to date. I'm also running eix-test-obsolete to make
sure I'm not masking something I should really be using. So, just
sitting here thinking, this is likely overkill but I think safe:

eix-sync
eix-test-obsolete
emerge -pvDuN --with-bdeps=y world
emerge -p --depclean
emerge -pvDuN --with-bdeps=y world
revdep-rebuild -p
eix-test-obsolete

Assuming everything is totally clean, or at least understood, now I
change the profile and repeat the above tasks.

Good luck,
Mark
