Gentoo eventually plans to remove 13.0 profiles (bug #672960). Please deprecate existing profiles as they depends on 'releases/13.0' directly or indirectly. Affected alpha profiles (identified with [1]): $ ./is-deprecated-profile.sh $(./expand-all-profiles.sh | fgrep releases/13.0 | awk '{ print $1 }') | fgrep -v DEPRECATED default/linux/alpha/13.0 ACTIVE default/linux/alpha/13.0/desktop ACTIVE default/linux/alpha/13.0/desktop/gnome ACTIVE default/linux/alpha/13.0/desktop/gnome/systemd ACTIVE default/linux/alpha/13.0/developer ACTIVE [1]: https://github.com/trofi/gentoo-qa/blob/master/profiles/is-deprecated-profile.sh
Done in commit 9694323f67dc40eb8f28292922729c59076b5689
Whoa! Than was quick! Unfortunately just deleting profiles from packages.desc has a few sad effects: - it does not force portage to issue a warning to switch to a new (suggested) profile - it makes pkgcheck complain about dangling profile: $ pkgcheck scan -c RepoProfilesReport UnusedProfileDirs: [ default/linux/alpha/13.0, default/linux/alpha/13.0/desktop, default/linux/alpha/13.0/desktop/gnome, default/linux/alpha/13.0/desktop/gnome/systemd, default/linux/alpha/13.0/developer ] I suggest restoring profiles in profiles.desc to keep profiles covered by repoman . And adding 'deprecated' file to suggest a migration target for users. Example change: https://bugs.gentoo.org/672960#c2 Another option is to remove 13.0 profiles outright.
I hope commit 11a648ad5fcbb7064e0f6516aa22bba7683aa400 is what's needed
