I'm almost sure your current portage is 11344 or something, and the |
13 |
current "upgrade" is in fact a downgrade ("UD"). I made some very |
14 |
unfortunate mistake by releasing your the portage you currently use. |

The easiest way to solve your problem now, is to bootstrap portage again |
17 |
(and only portage), and reemerge portage afterwards. |
