Hello after i finish my instalation i decided to emerge world in order to recompile and optimize my system
i used emerge world command to do it and after it finished as i read in some forums and guides i must have new conf files into .etc
so in order to resume my previous settings i shall put the old files into new ones my question is is this actually right
and what must be the name of the new conf files couse i dont see any that look like them
Thanks :)

Code:

or
Code:

man dispatch-conf

Moved from Installing Gentoo to Other Things Gentoo.
Gentoo doesn't upgrade config files in /etc automatically, so your setting will stay as they are until you run etc-update (or a replacement like dispatch-conf). However newer versions of packages may stop working until you upgrade their config files too.
