You autounmask'd kde-meta, but you're trying to emerge kde - you need
to to one or the other - kde-meta is kde split up into mutliple small
packages, kde is the old monolithic way of building kde - less builds,
but *much* larger builds per package, as it's actually building many
different applications per single ebuild.
