It mostly depends on your preference and what you use most. If you have a
DE focussed on CLI(awesomewm,i3) then stick to mail clients like mutt,
otherwise use something like geary,evolution,thunderbird

Re: [gentoo-user] EAPI packages

Is it perhaps an idea to mask the gentoolkit package when updating portage?

So portage cannot be installed because portage is installed?

Rather it looks like portage can't be updated because of the version of
gentoolkit that is installed. Try uninstalling gentoolkit, updating
portage and then reinstalling gentoolkit.

It may also help to know the USE flags used for gentoolkit and the
*current* portage install.
