During the initial installation emerge told me "glibc 2.4 is nptlonly" - so I turned on the nptl and nptlonly USE flags in make.conf. Now my old linux system (profile 2006.0) tells me the same. Sooo - i guess I would have to switch to the no-nptl profile in order to keep the old (-nptl -nptlonly) settings. Is this a good Idea? Or is using nptl+nptlonly better (faster, less hassle, less memory footprint) anyways? TIA, Wolfgang Liebich -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
