The Gentoo Upgrading Guide wrongly specifies "2006.0" as the most recent profile for all architectures except "arm". Furthermore it lacks profile updating instructions for updating to 2006.1.
Created attachment 95743 [details, diff] gentoo-upgrading.diff Let's see... this covers pretty much everything but mips, profile-wise. It might be worth mentioning somewhere that the alpha/2006.1, amd64/2006.1, and x86/2006.1 profiles are very minimal, and the desktop sub-profiles are likely what people will want if upgrading from a pre-2006.1 profile on a desktop machine.
Adding mips and sh so they can provide the information for their architectures.

Patch committed & 2006.1 section started.

Un-CCing sh, since they've never appeared on the guide...because they have *only one profile*. Thank you and goodnight!

Thank you and goodnight! > Went ahead and added sh to the guide anyway, since it is a supported arch with a supported profile. note: doesn't look like any changes need to be made to s390 or arm. just waiting on MIPS at this point, i think.
MIPS profiles are pretty much described on my blog, as well as in the bleeding-edge copy of the handbook: o http://stuartl.longlandclan.hopto.org/blog/2006/08/07/gentoomips-cobalt-20061-stage-3/ o http://www.longlandclan.hopto.org/~stuartl/gentoo/docs/index.php/gentoo-doc/en/handbook/handbook-mips.xml?part=1&chap=6#doc&chap=2 Handbook source for that section: http://www.longlandclan.hopto.org/~stuartl/gentoo/docs/gentoo-doc/en/handbook/hb-install-mips-system.xml
(In reply to comment #8) Done. 2006.1 MIPS profiles are all in place. All arches have been completed AFAIK, so the only thing holding us up is the dep on bug #147062.
The blocker was closed. I added the solution to fix the locale/unicode problem as described in bug 147062. Closing, thanks for all the hard work from everyone in here.
