1 Hello all,
2
3
4 I am trying to install Gentoo Prefix in a Red Hat 5.8 box.
5
6 I have tried the automatic and the step-by-step procedure, and I get stuck at the same point in step 3. From what I gather I need to update portage to a version that supports EAPI 5, however, when I try to do emerge -u portage I get the same error message. Not quite sure how to proceed... any help/tips would be greatly appreciated!

14 !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy ">=dev-util/pkgconfig-0.27.1" have been masked.
15 !!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
16 - dev-util/pkgconfig-9999::gentoo_prefix
17 (masked by: EAPI 5)
18 - dev-util/pkgconfig-0.28::gentoo_prefix (masked by: EAPI 5)
19 - dev-util/pkgconfig-0.27.1::gentoo_prefix (masked by: EAPI 5)

21 The current version of portage supports EAPI '4'. You must upgrade to a
22 newer version of portage before EAPI masked packages can be installed.

31 Oh yeah, I thought I was almost there, and then this!  I did
32   emerge -e system
33 and it failed at some point :(  Details might be found in the build log:
34   (no build logs found?!?)
35 I have no clue, really.  Please find friendly folks in #gentoo-prefix on
36 irc.gentoo.org, gentoo-alt@l.g.o mailing list, or file a bug
37 at bugs.gentoo.org under Gentoo/Alt, Prefix Support.
38 You know, I got the feeling you just started to like me, but I guess
39 that's all gone now.  I'll bother you no longer.
