upgrade your portage
You must be kidding. I'm not going to get portage from ~, I need 100% stable software (that's why I use stable branch)... Latest portage for amd64 is 2.1.9.42 kamil@KDpc ~ $ emerge -pv portage These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

EAPI=4 is not valid in stable portage (yet)
(In reply to comment #3) > EAPI=4 is not valid in stable portage (yet) sure it is, been for quite a while. ever since bug 358009
(In reply to comment #0) > KDpc kamil # emerge --info > Portage 2.1.9.25 (default/linux/amd64/10.0/desktop/kde, gcc-4.4.5, 2.1.9.25 you are using per emerge --info doesn't support EAPI=4 yet, upgrade to stable Portage, such as 2.1.9.42. Comment #3 seem to hint you have 2 versions of Portage installed, clean your system up

Reemerging portage solved the problem.
