You can do what I do when I want to keep a package that’s been removed from
portage: copy the overlay from /var/db/pkg/¹ to your local overlay
at /usr/local/prtage.
¹ Basically, that’s where portage keeps copies of all installed ebuilds.

Killing for peace is like fucking for virginity.
So, it wants to rebuild Kconvert but there is no such thing in portage.
I have the kde-sunset layman up to date as well. Also, I do use
Kconvert so I don't want to get rid of it either.
Is there a way to fix this? Oh, the news item is not related. I read
it but plan to go back to it one day when I have more time to mess with it.
Thanks.

I may end up doing that. I thought the KDE 3 stuff was supposed to move
over to kde-sunset. Did they just miss this one package maybe?
I may just do a quickpkg of the thing, unmerge it, let it do the other
updates and then put it back. ;-)

I have the kde-sunset layman up to date as well. Also, I do use
Kconvert so I don't want to get rid of it either.
Is there a way to fix this? Oh, the news item is not related. I read
it but plan to go back to it one day when I have more time to mess with it.

In a future not far from now, Dale has moments about every scrap of software save the kernel... ;-)

Actually, I just like to move from something stable to something new but
stable. I don't like going from something stable to something that
doesn't work or do at least as much as the old version does. KDE and
Seamonkey fall into that hole at the moment. Seamonkey 1 doesn't access
my banks website anymore since it is not being updated. Seamonkey 2 has
problems with emails. If you want some proof of that, look at the very
top. Unless your name is
chrome://messenger/locale/messengercompose/composeMsgs.properties then
it ain't working right. Seamonkey 1 quotes correctly tho.
So, Seamonkey 1 isn't usable and Seamonkey 2 has a few bugs up its but
too. KDE is about the same. Now hal is another story. It just plain
didn't work here. There was no stable or anything close to it. It just
plain fell flat on its face.

Perhaps KDE itself is for you, but I've been using kmail for years
without any real problems. Well, earlier versions would sometimes
corrupt their indices, but that was easily fixed. Recommended.

I used Kmail at first but just didn't like it very much. It's been a
while so I can't recall exactly what it was. I also like having one
program handling my web browsing and email. I have considered switching
to Thunderbird and Firefox tho.

Well Opera offers that functionality, you have your email in a side bar :-)
Although it's very much in denial about digitally signing/encrypting mails, but as long as that's not an issue, it's very good at what it does.
