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.
