My /etc/make.profile points to /usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/2004.2/gcc34/2.6 The so-called new-style location suggested in the "Gentoo Upgrading Guide" When I tries to run ufed (version 0.35), it failed with following messages, # ufed sh: /etc/make.profile/make.defaults: No such file or directory sh: /etc/make.profile/make.defaults: No such file or directory couldn't open use.defaults at /usr/sbin/ufed line 513. # Apparrently, it did not search for the missing files in the parently directories. i.e., /usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/2004.2/gcc34; /usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/2004.2 etc. When I point /etc/make.profile to the so-called old-style location /usr/portage/profiles/gcc34-x86-2004.2 the problem goes away as make.defaults and use.defaults are now found in the local directory. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. cd /etc 2. ln -s /usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/2004.2/gcc34/2.6 make.profile 2. ufed Actual Results: # ufed sh: /etc/make.profile/make.defaults: No such file or directory sh: /etc/make.profile/make.defaults: No such file or directory couldn't open use.defaults at /usr/sbin/ufed line 513. #
Still broken, although I just get: # ufed couldn't open use.defaults at /usr/sbin/ufed line 513.

Created attachment 39995 [details, diff] Patch to get the use.defaults from the stacked profile (simple) here a quick and silly patch, it doesn't work for every cases but worked for me locally
"sillypatch" worked for me. Info emerge --version Portage 2.0.51_rc1 (default-linux/x86/2004.2/gcc34/2.6, gcc-3.4.1, glibc-2.3.4.20040808-r0, 2.6.8-gentoo-r2 i686 /etc/make.profile -> /usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/2004.2/gcc34/2.6/
Created attachment 40056 [details, diff] stacked support complete (should be fixed)
Created attachment 40297 [details, diff] Fixes the use.defaults not found error Hmm... I just ran into this problem too. However, I found that just disabling the die instruction would work too. If the file isn't found, ufed can still do it's work. So, I'll add another patch. Just a proposal
the problem is that without the default list you won't know which useflag remove.
Created attachment 41183 [details, diff] stacked support, unified patch
added ufed-0.35-r1 with Lucas patch. There might be a few odd cases where it gives wrong results but I think we don't have those cases in the tree.
Doesn't work for me. When I execute "ufed" the message "ESC pressed, changes not saved" appears immediately. I haven't pressed ESC, in fact I haven't pressed anything because the nice scrolling list of USE flags does not appear at all!
