Hi Everyone , I am actually quite new to Gentoo , so give me a break if my question is a newbie one. anyway , while installing Gentoo , I got to the point where I want to compile the kernel , and for that I've done the following :
emerge --sync it did the sync , but stated at the end that I must upgrade portage using "emerge portage" so I tried that , and it doesn't seem to work , but giving out the following output : * " --- Invalid atom in /etc/portage/package.keywords: dev-perl/Locale-gettext-1.05-r1 Calculating dependencies / !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "dev-perl/Locale-gettext" have been masked. !!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request: - dev-perl/Locale-gettext-1.05-r1 (masked by: EAPI 2) The current version of portage supports EAPI '1'. You must upgrade to a newer version of portage before EAPI masked packages can be installed. For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook. (dependency required by "sys-apps/help2man-1.37.1" [ebuild]) " *What should I do to solve this ? I've googled it , yet haven't found a solution ... ( found some stuff about it , but couldn't make it work ) please help ... Thanks a lot Benny
