Likewise for /lib and /usr/lib, and so on... It doesn't matter that /foo and /usr/foo directories are in the same filesystem. > I got the news item when I ran "emerge --sync".

Yes -- If you're using OpenRC. I assume you are not using systemd since your old profile wasn't a systemd profile [In theory you could be running systemd on a non-systemd profile, but it's not common.] If you are running systemd, you should first update to the "merged-usr" flavor of your current profile. There's a detailed table at https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Toolchain/23.0_update_table It shows exactly what new profile corresponds to what old profile. > Migrating from there to "default/linux/amd64/23.0/no-multilib" is a > separate process as per the Gentoo wiki.
