Hello.

After changing make.profile simlink from /usr/portage/profiles/default-x86-2004.2 to /usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/2004.2 as it was sugested by portage euse utility is completly unworkable.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. euse -i

Actual Results:  
EUSE exiting with following errors: 
requires read permissions for /etc/make.profile/../use.desc. 
requires read permissions for /etc/make.profile/../use.local.desc. 
 


May be this helps. But I think the problem is common for everyone who moved to the new profile:
