A few days ago, I used eselect to switch profiles, from default-linux/x86/2007.0/desktop to default/linux/x86/2008.0/desktop.
A lot of USE flags were removed from my make.conf, including the cpu-optimizations such as sse and mmx. After re-compiling a few things and getting warnings from the ebuilds that video and audio playback would be choppy without those flags, I put them back into my flags in make.conf. If I use ufed to manage the flags, as I'm used to doing, it takes them back out when I save changes. It seems strange to me that the profile switch should affect these flags. I think I'm overlooking/misunderstanding something, but I'm not sure what to ask. Any enlightenment (including links to enlightenment) would be appreciated. -- »Q« Kleeneness is next to Gödelness. -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
