Hi,
I am trying to emerge “eclipse-sdk” by using the following command:
e/merge eclipse-sdk /
I get the following error:
/ - dev-util/eclipse-sdk-3.2.1-r2 (masked by: required EAPI 1, supported
EAPI 0) /
[...]
The output of my “/emerge –info/” is as follows:
Portage 2.1.2.2 (default-linux/x86/2007.0/desktop, gcc-4.1.1,
glibc-2.5-r0, 2.6.19-gentoo-r5 i686)
You should consider updating your system:
emerge -auvDN world
(I hope you know the work that this implies.)
At least your portage version (2.1.2.2) is simply too old to emerge some
packages, so you have to update at least that one:
emerge -auvDN sys-apps/portage
This might pull in other updates, enough to warrant doing a full world
update.
