I get the same "it appears you have switched to the 2005.0 profile without following the instructions"
At the top of the page it states that the page is depreciated. So where are the current instructions for switching to the 2005.0 profile? in the /etc/make.profile/README states

This profile has not yet been released, and as such we don't recommend
using it on production systems. That being said, many users have been
successfully upgrading to this profile to help us test, and if you want
to help us in that process, please check out the following URL for full
instructions:

I emerged sync before I did this and symlinked /etc/make.profile to /usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/amd64/2005.0 |

This error occurs because either /lib32 or /usr/lib32 are still symlinks. The upgrading guide has instructions for removing these, creating them as directories, and copying necessary files to them.

Thanks Maedhros,
but http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/base/amd64/2005.0-upgrade-amd64.xml#doc_chap3 states that the upgrade guide is depreciated: 
| Quote: |
AMD64 2005.0 Upgrade Guide
Content: #doc_chap1
1. Howto Upgrade an AMD64 installation from 2004.3 to 2005.0.
Warning: This doc is now deprecated

it doesn't say it's deprecated, but it says "2005.0 hasn't been released yet, so there are still some changes you will need to make in /etc/portage to get this process to work" (just before Code Listing 1).
Does it mean that we should expect the process to be "easier" on a released 2005.0?
Also, the /usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/amd64/2005.0/README says that 2005.0 is not released yet
So my guess is that the press release was released, the image was created, but no updates to the profile...
still waiting,
Dan. |

Good comment danyer,
Gentoo-announce today released a statement that 2005.0 is now available, but when I saw the contents of the readme, I thought either my rsync mirror had not yet been updated or I had missed somethign out.
Talking of missing something out, did you spot the posts that 2005.0 on amd had been released with a non-bootable image? There may still be issues with this release. I think I will stick with 2004.3 for a while longer 
My prevous update from 2004.2 to 2004.3 was a breeze with a good update document to boot, this release has not been a smooth transition so far,

the manual upgrade and script (in the docs) are for multilib ..unless I am mis-reading things.. the way to upgrade for no multilib is to link to no-multilib and then emerge. |
