???  I didn't specify that!  I put it in the config file because emerge
told me to.  I have no idea what 9999 really does.

Here's all runs:


These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies  ... done!

The following keyword changes are necessary to proceed:
  (see "package.accept_keywords" in the portage(5) man page for more
details)
# required by sys-apps/portage (argument)
=sys-apps/portage-2.3.100-r1 ~amd64

  * In order to avoid wasting time, backtracking has terminated early
  * due to the above autounmask change(s). The --autounmask-backtrack=y
  * option can be used to force further backtracking, but there is no
  * guarantee that it will produce a solution.

!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy

- app-portage/gemato-14.3::gentoo (masked by: EAPI 7)

The current version of portage supports EAPI '6'. You must upgrade to a
newer version of portage before EAPI masked packages can be installed.

Okay, I give that a go.
