This isn't the bitch and moan mailing list. If you've got problems with
an overlay maintainer, then take it to the overlay maintainer. General
support questions come here.
Having said that, you *are* using an overlay. Caveat emptor, and I'm
not absolutely certain, but I have a pretty good idea that KDE doesn't
even have a oxygen-icons-4.4.92.

Someone broke kde overlay :P
And to answer the original statement: the kde overlay often puts the ebuilds in before the sources themselves hit the mirrors. And the .xz compression format is the successor to the .lzma format, if I recall correctly...you should have xz-utils on your system.

Please, please, don't do that. I'm sure whoever is responsible for this
is just misinformed about something. Thank you :-)

It's Overlay - this is how it work's. It's buggy stack thats why it's called Overlay. Otherwise "the Code" from Overlay should be in main stream in regular portage. Please don't complain that Overlay don't work. Try emerge about 3-4 days after error occures.

Looks like it was just fixed an hour ago, resync the overlay and it
should use bz2 now:
Someone broke kde overlay :P
