This is what i get when emerging sys-apps/portage-2.0.51_pre17 "... * Checking //var/lib/portage for bad/illegal files: * Feature additions are noted in help and make.conf descriptions. * Update configs using 'etc-update' please. Maintaining current configs * for portage and other system packages is fairly important for the * continued health of your system. * NOTICE: There have been changes in the location of some internal files * to better match the FHS. The changes do not directly affect users * but please be advised that changing between versions of portage * with and without these changes may introduce some inconsistencies * in package data regarding 'world' and 'virtuals' (provides). * /var/cache/edb/world has moved to /var/lib/portage/world * with a convenience symlink at /etc/portage/sets/world * /var/cache/edb/virtuals has been deprecated and is now calculated * on demand. Strictly _USER_ modifications to virtuals may go into * /etc/portage/virtuals and will never be modified by portage. Recalculating the counter... Counter updated successfully.
