after updating everything to kde 3.3.1, those two (well with arts it's three) wanna downgrade again and I can't find why. root: emerge -pvuD world These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating world dependencies ...done!

You can take a look using the -t (--tree) emerge option. emerge -pvuDt world I can only suppose but probably also this is related to the absence of kdeaddons-3.3.1.ebuild, so kdeaddons-3.3.0 needs kdepim-3.3.0 and kdemultimedia-3.3.0 and these needs kdebase-3.3.0.
No, this is because you emerged those packages as ~x86 but your make.conf only has x86 listed, so portage is wanting you to downgrade.
I was thinking the same, but then I've noticed that subversion wants to be updated to 1.1.0 and it's marked as "~x86"
Hmm, I guess I have it marked x86 in an overlay directory then. Well, I've updated kdeaddons, so presumably you can finish the kde-3.3.1 merge and it will solve this problem.
no, I think found it. it's the absence of kde-i18n-3.3.1 that causes this (at least that's my final presumption)... so I'll just wait for this one... thx for the infos anyway...
