Hello everyone,

In about a week, I will remove backward support for portage-1.8.8 and earlier
(i.e. the 1.0_rc6 profile) from the eclasses (FYI, eclasses are used by all
kde ebuilds). Everyone who hasn't yet done so should upgrade to the latest
portage-1.9.x (1.9.9 as of this writing).

If 'emerge portage' still emerges portage-1.8.8-r1 for you, you are using the
old 1.0_rc6 profile. Please change the /etc/make.profile symlink to point to
/usr/portage/profiles/default-1.0. Further instructions for upgrading from a
1.0_rc6 system to a 1.0 one were posted to these lists previously.
