There is an inconsistency when Portage is reporting which packages are installed. I.e, 'emerge search liquid' correctly reports that the mosfet-liquid-widgets package is installed. However an 'emerge --searchdesc widget.*kde' reports it as not being installed (since the version numbers are included in the package name). overkill root # emerge search liquid Searching...

Works for me. Probably fixed when drobbins redid the code. Reopen if you still find this and issue.
This strange bug still exists; I've tried re-emerging portage (after doing an rsync) and re-emerging the ebuild - to no avail.

Fixed in cvs. Will be in 2.0.41
