Hi all,
        I've just done an

emerge --sync

        ad got, along with all the usual stuff, the following:

*************************
...
...
...
Performing Global Updates:
(Could take a couple of minutes if you have a lot of binary packages.)


  .='update pass'  *='binary update'  #='/var/db update'  @='/var/db move'
  s='/var/db SLOT move'  %='binary move'  S='binary SLOT move'
  p='update /etc/portage/package.*'
/usr/portage/profiles/updates/1Q-2005................
.....................................................
.....................................................

/usr/portage/profiles/updates/4Q-2010........

 * An update to portage is available. It is _highly_ recommended

The question is: Should a profile from 2005 be updated as well? I built this machine from scratch about 6 months ago so there wasn't something like a "favourite config" I brought across from another machine. Is this normal behaviour? Should I be worried? Should I zealously try and track this down and kill it or should I let bygones be bygones?

        Any thoughts greatly appreciated,

                Andrew
