Follow the directions exactly. If you haven't done the bootstrap.sh you won't get far. Forget the upgrade at this point. The ebuild probably has the message in it and it's meant for those with systems installed. Usually when portage has to be updated it will do it automatically, then you can start the merge over.

No. It works here. Did you just try emerge sync, then do the


cd /usr/portage
scripts/bootstrap.sh


I haven't, but I guess I'll start over and try that next. I was just
trying to follow the instructions in the warning and upgrade portage
before installing anything else.


Is there an rc5 in the works that will include the new emerge? It seems
like that would eliminate a lot of questions that this "update emerge"
message is likely to cause.
