Created attachment 268769 [details] Output of emerge --info In konversation-1.3.1.ebuild it reads: KDE_HANDBOOK="optional" inherit kde4-base However with (global) USE=-handbook I get this error from portage: # sudo emerge --deep --update world system These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done! emerge: there are no ebuilds built with USE flags to satisfy ">=kde-base/kdelibs-4.4[aqua=,handbook]". !!! One of the following packages is required to complete your request: - kde-base/kdelibs-4.6.2 (Change USE: +handbook) (dependency required by "net-irc/konversation-1.3.1" [installed]) (dependency required by "@selected" [set]) (dependency required by "@world" [argument]) So the handbook is not as optional as declared. Any ideas?
PS: the error goes away when switching the ebuild to KDE_HANDBOOK="never".

Seems that now it's gone, wierd. Closing.
