!!! Your current profile is deprecated

I would do what it recommends. You can save you current use flags by piping emerge --info to a text file then check to to see if you lost any important flags. You can then use you make.conf to recover them if necessary.

What did you have for a profile before?

I changed from default/linux/X86/10.0 to default/linux/x86/13.0 and the only thing 'emerge -uavDN world' did was reinstall a single package: dev-python/python-exec-0.2.

Just select one of the new 13.0 profiles. They are really identical to the 10.0 profiles with some other important updates like EAPI 5
There should not be any flag changes.

But to check and create a new package.use file you can use enalyze from gentoolkit.

That profile switch, you know, that actually really did justify -N.

The profile switch itself should not have any consequences at all on your packages (and should also not induce any rebuilds). It only adds support for new file formats within the profile directories.

Just make sure you first upgrade your portage to current stable before switching profile.

I'm talking mainly about those python packages, they want me to get the *-r1 version which is ~arch. Why?

Ok, after some debugging with --tree it seems most of these python packages are pulled in by matplotlib being pulled in by scikits_learn.
however, scikits_learn depends (accroding to equery graph) on any version of matplotlib with python_targets* flags. So if I understand this right, matplotlib-1.2.0-r2 is being pulled in because it uses the new python_targets stuff?

The one package I had to rebuild was also related to PYTHON_TARGETS.
