If you want help, you need to provide more information about your setup. - Where is your portage tree? - When did you last "emerge --sync" ? - When did you last "emerge --update @world" ? As someone else said, it looks like your tree is nearly two years out of date. That could be why it can't find inetutils. If that is the case, you really need to bring your system up to date before worrying about installing any new packages. There have been other threads about updating a system out of date by more than six months. It is possible, but potentially difficult. It may also be helpful, if not necessary, to delete some packages and then reinstall them once the system is fully updated.

It looks like you're portage tree is out of date ... rather very out of date. The package was first added in September of 2023. So you'll have to sync up and probably have lots of other updates to handle as well.
