sorry if this looks like a rant, but don't you check your ebuilds properly? Do you just update the version numbers?

I'm tired of seeing this kind of errors.... I think it gives a bad image to the distro.... The word slacker comes to my mind..

it's more of a bash thing ... the question is did you do your research before
you ranted ?

the error is because all the files are 0 bytes in size:
/usr/lib/portage/bin/dodoc:
    if [ -s "${x}" ] ; then
    else
        echo "${0}: ${x} does not exist."
    fi

this should be fixed in the kde eclass: [ -f "$doc" ]; should be replaced
by [ -s "$doc" ];
