In the meantime a new ebuild format version (EAPI) has been introduced; your |
7 |
old portage can't process that, and as a result doesnt understand many new |
8 |
ebuilds. |
9 |
|
10 |
Portage disregards ebuilds where it doesnt know the format, but of course if |
11 |
these are needed to update Portage itself, you're somewhat screwed. |
12 |
|
13 |
Luckily there is a very simple workaround. |
14 |
|
15 |
Download a recent portage (the packager) tarball, or clone git master portage: |
16 |
https://anongit.gentoo.org/git/proj/portage.git |
17 |
|
18 |
Then run the "emerge" command inside that checkout, by giving its full path, |
19 |
the same way as you would otherwise run emerge. This updates your system and |
20 |
ideally afterwards your system portage is new and shiny, so you can delete the |
21 |
git clone again. |
