News item to hopefully ease the transition to a package manager which

+Title: Profile EAPI 5 requirement
+Author: Zero_Chaos <zerochaos@gentoo.org>
+Content-Type: text/plain

+
+The Gentoo Council has decided that the entire profile tree will be
+updated to require EAPI=5 support.
+
+http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/council/meeting-logs/20140114.txt
+
+For all non-deprecated profiles this requirement has already been in
+place for over one year. If you have updated your system at any point
+during 2013, and followed the instructions in the profile deprecation
+warnings (which cannot really easily be overlooked), and are running an
+up-to-date portage version, there is absolutely nothing that you need
+to do now.
+
+If you are running an installation that has not been updated for more
+than a year, the portage tree you have just updated to may be
+incompatible with your portage version, and the profile you are using
+may be gone.
+
+It is still possible to upgrade, following these simple steps:
+
+1.) Do not panic.
+2.) Download a portage snapshot from
+	http://dev.gentoo.org/~zerochaos/snapshots
+3.) Unpack the snapshot to ~/tmp
+4.) If you are not already, become root
+5.) # rsync --recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --force \
+	--whole-file --delete --stats --human-readable \
+	--exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages \
+	--verbose --progress --omit-dir-times /tmp/portage /usr/portage
+6.) # chown portage.portage -R /usr/portage
+6.) If needed, set your profile to a modern one (typically named 13.0)
+7.) # eselect profile list
+8.) # eselect profile set <desired profile>
+9.) emerge --update --oneshot portage
+
+Now that you have a modern copy of portage, you can go back to updating
+your system as usual. Please update your system at LEAST twice a year
+to avoid issues like this in the future.
+
+Thanks for flying Gentoo.
