I just tried changing it

eselect profile set 3
eselect profile set 1

and it didn't create the link in /etc/portage, it is still in /etc...



Ah, then it *preserves* the current location.  I have it in /etc/portage and
eselect profile kept it there, too.

However, I just checked and if you delete make.profile and then re-create it
with eselect profile it is created in /etc/portage.



So, to do this manually just:

~ ln -s make.profile /usr/portage/profiles/default/linux/amd64/13.0

~ rm /etc/make.profile



I guess so. Or rm /etc/make.profile  eselect profile set whatever as
described above.


Ok, thanks all, makes sense now...

Please read the man page for ln.
You have the arguments in reverse.
