The ebuild for kdeadmin forces portage to emerge kdebase instead of emerging whatever components kdeadmin requires; this breaks the split-ebuild behavior. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge kdeadmin on a split-ebuild kde system 2. emerge fails with blockage issues 3. Actual Results: These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done!

What you want is kdeadmin-meta.
