I cannot normally emerge kde-base/okular-4.12.1[mobi] because it and kde-base/kdegraphics-mobipocket are circularly dependent. kde-base/kdegraphics-mobipocket should not depend on kde-base/okular, I checked the 4.12.1 version and it is definitely not dependent upon okular. These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

Thanks, fixed in CVS and git. It looks like the okular plugin used to be part of kdegrapgics-mobipocket, but was moved upstream to okular and we didn't notice. + 20 Jan 2014; Michael Palimaka <kensington@gentoo.org> + kdegraphics-mobipocket-4.12.1.ebuild: + Remove unused dependency wrt bug #498674. http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/kde.git;a=commit;h=f8d47e2784b688860709a432ad1496fc592fafc2
