 |
|
Hello there,
when I type <emerge --pretend vim> I get the cryptic message:
!!! Your current profile is deprecated and not supported anymore.
!!! Please upgrade to the following profile if possible:
default-ppc-2004.1
What can I do to handle this situation. I am running gentoo-1.4 on a ppc.
Thanks for your help

You should probably read the Upgrading Guide. Excerpt:
| Quote: |
However, Gentoo strongly recommends a migration if your profile becomes deprecated and is no more supported by Gentoo developers, that is to say that your profile is not listed anymore in the table below.
.............
3. Profile updating instructions
Updating from 1.4 to 2004.0 (all archs)
There are no fundamental changes between 1.4 and 2004.0 profiles. Just point the /etc/make.profile link to the new location:
Code Listing 3.1: Updating the /etc/make.profile link
# rm /etc/make.profile
# ln -s ../usr/portage/profiles/default-x86-2004.0 /etc/make.profile
|
| Code: | | cd /usr/portage/profiles; ls |
look for default-ppc-2004.1 and link it up as per instructions in the upgrade guide. You should probably do
afterwards. HTH. |

Glad I could help. It's easy to miss stuff, maybe that complete list of docs should be at the top of that page rather than the bottom... Too many docs, too little time...  |
