okay this is because the ebuild redefines ${P} and ${PN} (see http://dev.gentoo.org/~liquidx/ebuildmistakes.html) which makes things more convenient for getting the source etc. but unfortunately, this means when the build gets to the gconf step it looks for GConf-2.2.1, when portage has stored it correctly as gconf-2.2.1. i've got this fixed local now, just run it by foser before it goes in.
