After doing a emerge --sync the message recommended a new protage be emerged.
When trying to emerge portage this is what I get;

emerge -v1 portage


!!! /etc/make.profile is not a symlink and will probably prevent most merges.
!!! It should point into a profile within /usr/portage/profiles/
!!! (You can safely ignore this message when syncing. It's harmless.)



These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies \
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "sys-apps/portage" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- sys-apps/portage-2.2_rc58 (masked by: EAPI 2)
- sys-apps/portage-2.2_rc56 (masked by: EAPI 2)
- sys-apps/portage-2.2_rc55 (masked by: EAPI 2)
- sys-apps/portage-2.2_rc54 (masked by: EAPI 2)
- sys-apps/portage-2.2_rc33 (masked by: package.mask, missing keyword)
/usr/portage/profiles/package.mask:
# Zac Medico <zmedico@gentoo.org> (05 Jan 2009)
# Portage 2.2 is masked due to known bugs in the
# package sets and preserve-libs features.

- sys-apps/portage-2.1.7.13 (masked by: EAPI 2)
- sys-apps/portage-2.1.7.11 (masked by: EAPI 2)
- sys-apps/portage-2.1.7.10 (masked by: EAPI 2)
- sys-apps/portage-2.1.7.9 (masked by: EAPI 2)
- sys-apps/portage-2.1.6.13 (masked by: missing keyword)
- sys-apps/portage-2.1.6.7 (masked by: missing keyword)
- sys-apps/portage-2.1.4.4 (masked by: )

The current version of portage supports EAPI '1'. You must upgrade to a
newer version of portage before EAPI masked packages can be installed.

For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or
refer to the Gentoo Handbook.

Sorry, but I can't figure out nor can I find information on how to get to EAPI 2 portage.
Please help!

Unmask this one:
Code:
echo ">=sys-apps/portage-2.2_rc33" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords


and emerge -u1av portage but you might find that you will need to unmask other stuff like maybe sys-apps/sandbox-2.2 - not sure.

Then run emerge -uDNav @world

Have fun reading the new emerge man page too. :)

Thanks for the assistance!
I did as requested. First echo ">=sys-apps/portage-2.2_rc33" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords. I already had done that, but did it again.
Then emerge -u1 portage. I then received;
emerge -u1 portage

Calculating dependencies... done!
>>> Auto-cleaning packages...

>>> No outdated packages were found on your system.


Thinking that might be the response we wanted I did:
emerge -puDNav @world

>>> --pretend disables --ask... removing --ask from options.

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

!!! '@world' is not a valid package atom.
!!! Please check ebuild(5) for full details.
!!! (Did you specify a version but forget to prefix with '='?)


Here is my package.keyword:

Thanks again Mike for the help!

Read this carefully, and first fix your profile. Use eselect profile to set your profile to a 10.0/desktop.

Thanks ppurka! You are the man. This seems to be the problem. I miss understood the warning, and thought it was harmless! Thanks!
Fix...
#eselect profile list
#eselect profile set (Number)
Number from the list!
#emerge -1vu portage
