When I emerge joomla I get the following output:

greebo ~ # emerge joomla
Calculating dependencies ...done!
>>> emerge (1 of 1) www-apps/joomla-1.0.7 to /
>>> md5 files   ;-) joomla-1.0.7.ebuild
>>> md5 files   ;-) files/digest-joomla-1.0.7
>>> md5 files   ;-) files/postinstall-en.txt
>>> md5 src_uri ;-) joomla-1.0.7.tar.bz2

!!! ERROR: www-apps/joomla-1.0.7 failed.
!!! Function has_php, Line 233, Exitcode 1
!!! Unable to find an installed dev-lang/php package
!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status message.

Now, I do have php installed:

greebo ~ # equery list | grep php
dev-php/mod_php-4.4.0-r9
dev-php/php-4.4.0-r4

If I try and emerge dev-lang/php I get this:

greebo ~ # emerge -p dev-lang/php

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[blocks B     ] dev-php/mod_php (is blocking dev-lang/php-5.0.5-r5)
[blocks B     ] dev-php/php (is blocking dev-lang/php-5.0.5-r5)
[ebuild  N    ] app-admin/php-toolkit-1.0-r2  
[ebuild  N    ] dev-lang/php-5.0.5-r5

dev-php/php and dev-php/mod_php are deprecated, you need to switch to dev-lang/php
