You may be able to fix Kopete by switching USE flags off (my guess is that v4l2 is the guilty party here.)

Yes, it is. You can get Kopete 3 to compile by switching that off, or you can upgrade just Kopete to 4.x by putting all the other individual programs from KDE 3 you want into your world file with the ":3.5" suffix (rather than having "meta" packages pull them all in automatically), and allowing only Kopete to be upgraded.

The reason you probably will want to do the latter is because Kopete isn't just a desktop thing -- it's an Internet client and it needs security support.
