There is no error! Recent versions of Portage perform an autoclean to remove 
older and unneeded packages. The 'error' "!!! Couldnt find match etc." is 
from the routine that tries to find old versions that were installed. But in 
a fresh system there aren't any.

I think the message should be reformatted so that it does not look like an 
error, which it currently surely does!
