Thank you, dhudson. Would you also be so kind to post 1.) output of ls -l /etc/portage/ (-l flag is important), and 2.) content of /etc/portage/make.profile/arch/x86-64bit/parent

Thanks. i didn't ask about repos.conf but about make.profile. I read the README.rst page carefully and did what it says. Nevertheless, I ran into major troubles after removing /usr/portage. First, no profile is defined anymore: me@work# epro list ... WARNING: No arch defined. Please set. WARNING: No build defined. Please set. WARNING: No flavor defined. Please set. If i make /etc/portage/make.profile a link to /var/git/meta-repo/kits/core-kit/profiles/funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/ as suggested above, epro gets broken: me@work# epro arch x86-64bit Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/epro", line 102, in <module> EgoModule.run_ego_module(action, econfig, args, VERSION) File "/usr/share/ego/python/ego/module.py", line 64, in run_ego_module ego_module(*args) File "/usr/share/ego/modules/profile.ego", line 299, in __call__ super().__call__(*args) File "/usr/share/ego/python/ego/module.py", line 49, in __call__ self.handle(**options) File "/usr/share/ego/modules/profile.ego", line 278, in handle handler(**options) File "/usr/share/ego/modules/profile.ego", line 198, in handle_single_profile_actions current_setting = list(self.tree.get_children(profile_type))[0] IndexError: list index out of range Second, tools like qsearch etc. do not work any more: me@work# qsearch base64 search: open failed: /usr/portage: No such file or directory Basically, this means that I cannot emerge anymore and my system is broken, for the first time that I'm using funtoo – and it's quite a couple of years!

If you wipe out /usr/portage, the /etc/portage/make.profile symlink becomes a dead link. I additionally had to do: rm /etc/portage/make.profile ln -sf /var/git/meta-repo/kits/core-kit/profiles/funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/ /etc/portage/make.profile I'm not sure if this is correct, as relevant documentation is lacking in https://github.com/funtoo/meta-repo/blob/master/README.rst.

Please also add instructions on correct target of /etc/portage/make.profile symlink to https://github.com/funtoo/meta-repo/blob/master/README.rst. This symlink becomes invalid as soon as /usr/portage has been removed after migrating to meta-repo. Thank you.
