In line 16 in /usr/portage/app-i18n/koffice-i18n/koffice-i18n-1.3_rc2.ebuild is a small typo: Wrong version: newdepend "~app-office/koffice-${PV} >=sys-apps/portage-2.0.49-r8" Correct version: newdepend ">=app-office/koffice-${PV} >=sys-apps/portage-2.0.49-r8" Maybe the operator has to be tuned.

why is it wrong ? are you getting an error ? the ~ means 'match any portage revision'
Yes! Without my modifications: # emerge -uDp world These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating world dependencies - emerge: there are no masked or unmasked ebuilds to satisfy "~app-office/koffice-1.3_rc2". !!! Problem with ebuild app-i18n/koffice-i18n-1.3_rc2 !!! Possibly a DEPEND/*DEPEND problem. !!! Depgraph creation failed. And with my modifications: #emerge -uDp world These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating world dependencies ...done! [ebuild U ] media-libs/libvorbis-1.0.1-r2 [1.0.1-r1] [ebuild N ] dev-php/mod_php-4.3.4-r3 [ebuild U ] media-sound/xmms-1.2.9-r1 [1.2.9] [ebuild U ] media-libs/faad2-2.0_rc3-r1 [2.0_rc3] Johnny
well perhaps a package needs to be added/removed from portage
This package isn't in portage anymore, so it's not a problem.
