Full log of emerge and for khelpcenter, emerge with xapian and khelpcenter and emerge --info

Hi, it appears installing plasma-meta and specifically khelpcenter fails.
One of the error is: 
> xapiansearch.cpp:(.text.startup+0xb28): undefined reference to `Xapian::Query::get_description[abi:cxx11]() const'

It also appears, from a quick googling around that the needed version of xapian is not being pulled by the khelpcenter package.

The output of emerge -pv plasma-meta

The output of emerge -pv xapian

I resolved by doing emerge xapian plasma-meta.

Not a dependency issue. This looks like xapian was not rebuilt after a switch from GCC4 to 5 (incompatible ABI).
