john-doe,
I will teach you to fish - but not give you a fish. If you cannot help yourself given a few pointers, Gentoo is probably not for you.
To follow up on | John R. Graham wrote: | | Then again, you could discover how by reading the Handbook and the portage man page, which would also be a good thing. |
portage-2.2 is both hard masked and not keyworded. First of all, you must understand what that means. The net effect is that you don't get portage-2.2 by accident.
So ... do your homework and tell me what hard masked and not keyworded means. Then I'll give you another pointer, if you still need one.

HOW?

Have you filed that documentation bug? Have you done Neddy's assigned homework? 
In all candor, asking these types of questions shows that you need to find and study a general Linux tutorial. I made a recent recommendation of a couple of good tutorials in this post, which you saw. If you feel you have a language barrier, you could ask in one of the language specific forums for a recommendation of a tutorial written in your native language.
- John
