Error: The above package list contains packages which cannot be installed !!! on the same system. Emerging this package with split LDE ebuilds should be possible too. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
I switched the dependency order in multisync from "kdepim kdepim-meta" to "kdepim-meta kdepim", so the error should disapper now. For the fix to be complete, the ebuild should be changed to depend on the specific programs required from kdepim (see bug 83058).
fixed in -r4
