I don't know if Gentoo devs accept suggestions...but I noticed there are no desktop profiles with the no-multilib option.

Is it feasible for the Gentoo devs to create such profiles?

Can I as a regular user create new Portage profiles and make them available?

Jojobinha_2009,

The devs are more likely to respond to feature requests submitted via bugs. That's the dev workflow.

You can indeed make your own profiles.
Minor tweaks go in /etc/portage/profile/ See
Code:
man portage


You can put your own profiles into an overlay too. That's a better option for whole new profiles as /etc/portage/profile/ is intended for modifications to your selected profile.

Yes ! See my last post of this thread: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1110124-highlight-.html
(maybe you want to read the whole thread ... I had the same question as you now ... ;-) )
