Description Chen 2017-05-21 11:41:06 UTC
The first link ( http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/releng/docs/cascading-profiles.xml) in the Description section of the man page for portage is broken.

Observed this while "man portage" on bash.

There's no such link in portage(5) man page according to https://gitweb.gentoo.org/proj/portage.git/tree/man/portage.5

Which version of portage are you using?

man portage was used in the live USB, may be that's outdated. Portage(5) is what the output shows, guess that's the version.
