kaddressbook-plugins needs to be dependend upon kaddressbook I wanted to instll it and didnt have kaddressbook on my system. I ran emerge -av kaddressbook-plugins - and it failed to emerge. when I ran emerge -av kaddressbook and then kaddressbook-plugins all emerged well.

It's not missing the dependency DEPEND="$(deprange $PV $MAXKDEVER kde-base/kaddressbook)" Chances are fair that the weird deprange() thing from kde-functions.eclass simply does not work as expected...
thanks for correcting my bad header. Just had to submit it b4 I forget :-)
emerge kaddressbook-plugins -pv These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done! [ebuild N ] kde-base/kaddressbook-3.5.1 -arts -debug -gnokii -kdeenablefinal -kdexdeltas -xinerama 0 kB [ebuild R ] kde-base/kaddressbook-plugins-3.5.1 -arts -debug -kdeenablefinal -kdexdeltas -xinerama 0 kB Total size of downloads: 0 kB Works fine here. You might have some kde related eclass in your overlay (and this is big no no, since Portage will use it even if this version became stale in between). No idea what's causing this, but I'm quite sure it's a local problem.
