In this case, I expect there would be changes. 2006.1 introduced desktop and server sub-profiles, so 2006.1 itself contains a minimal set of USE flags, only those used by both server ans desktop. Thus it is possible that many of your packages would be rebuilt with an emerge -uavDN world. On the other hand, if you switched to a 2006.1/desktop profile, it is likely that very little would change, except maybe a few default USE flags that you hardly use. -- Neil Bothwick Software: (n.)
