/etc/profile.env says that local changes to profiles go in /etc/profile, yet /etc/profile gets updated occasionally (more than once causing me to lose customizations if I failed to noticed that profile was going to be overwritten). Please consider adding code to source /etc/profile.local or some such if it exists to the standard /etc/profile. If there is already some better place for this sort of thing, please educate me and disregard this bug. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Emerge a baselayout update. Actual Results: /etc/profile was updated. Expected Results: /etc/profile updating is fine, but /etc/profile should source /etc/profile.local if such exists.
if you cant update your /etc files properly perhaps you should look into backing them up with rcs see /etc/dispatch-conf.conf and a recent GWN for a quick HOWTO *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 38381 ***
