Ok, try this... (as root)

--- Code: ---eselect profile list
--- End code ---

That should print out something like this:

--- Quote ---Available profile symlink targets:
  [1]   default-linux/x86/2006.1
  [2]   default-linux/x86/no-nptl
  [3]   default-linux/x86/2006.1/desktop
  [4]   default-linux/x86/2007.0 *
  [5]   default-linux/x86/2007.0/desktop
  [6]   hardened/x86/2.6
  [7]   selinux/2007.0/x86
  [8]   selinux/2007.0/x86/hardened

--- End quote ---

Choose one of the ones that starts with 'default-linux' and has nothing after the year/release number. (so something like default-linux/x86/2007.0) Then, type this in as root: (replacing the number with the number that matches the profile you chose)

--- Code: ---eselect profile set 4
--- End code ---

If this doesn't give you any output, it should have worked; after you've done this, try those emerge commands from the earlier post I had made.

Morgul:
... dude, she killed her portage tree. I told her to to an emerge --sync, and I think she killed it in the middle of that.

So, do

--- Code: ---emerge --sync

--- End code ---

Then do what was instructed. And no, you and Keith were both wrong. Not your fault but on gentoo you never download files to install something.

xofelf:
see chris, it's all your fault! But seriously, thanks for all your help! *hugs*

it still says that the link is broken...how do i fix that? unfortunately i have to go to school now, but i might be able to get on for help after i  make some bread when i get home...would you guys be offended if asked anouther person for help? he's just as geeky as you guys and he might know what he's doing..or at least how to explain it to me.
