In the following line kdepackages is a file with a premade list of kde packages
I want to emerge.

USE="kdeenablefinal" emerge `cat kdepackages`

I have seen a very similar problem solved here:
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-2003728.html#2003728
however I'm a wimp and I have not attempted to emerge other packages and find a
(possible?) missing dependency.

I forgot to mention that kitchensync is the FIRST package in the emerge list.

Feeling brave I tried :)
emerge --oneshot kontact
solved the problem, so it's either kontact or one of its dependencies that was
missing.

You're correct, thanks. :)
