yesterday I checked out the vv branch of pidgin from their monotone server,and added the gstreamer support while ./configure,and then installed it then today I uninstalled it by "make uninstall",then emerged pidgin from portage. Now something strange happened.I installed pidgin with -gstreamer USE flag,but pidgin still tries to load libgstfatsight. I uninstalled and reinstalled again and again but still got this error.I don't know why.

I'm almost sure it's invalid, as in 'you've broken it yourself'. First, I'd check for stale la files, whereever you've installed it.
Put stuff like this in a live ebuild to avoid problems like this. If you break it, the only thing will back you on is that all the pieces are yours to keep. Sorry.
well...actually this is my fault... how about this: yesterday I made a mistake and re-emerged pidgin with -gstreamer USE flag, but I found pidgin is still compiled with gstreamer support. I don't know why,is this the problem of portage or the problem of pidgin? can anyone give me a clue?
Please tell us the output of `which pidgin' itself.

OK, seems we really cannot help you with this. Your remaining option is to find and remove files not owned by any package and remove them through, perhaps, `qfile -o /'. This is not a bug in Gentoo Linux since you worked around the package management system that Gentoo provides (and now you know why it is better to write an ebuild).
