Is this why I get this error?

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

Calculating system dependencies /
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy ">=sys-libs/e2fsprogs-libs-1.41" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- sys-libs/e2fsprogs-libs-1.41.4 (masked by: EAPI 2, invalid: SLOT is undefined)
- sys-libs/e2fsprogs-libs-1.41.3-r1 (masked by: EAPI 2, invalid: SLOT is undefined)

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.
(dependency required by "sys-apps/util-linux-2.14.1" [ebuild])

You need to upgrade portage.
