Treating this as dupe, as we cannot do anything about it - or rather , that's my guess wrt. Google's licensing. Basically the problem is Google's - same signature for different files isn't a good idea.

in the meantime emerge -e dies on what used to be a valid package. The least you could do is update the SRC_URI. Although the best option would be to put a fetch restriction on it.
