What's forcing it is your version of amarok:

See that last entry?

You need the 1.3 beta, not the last release.

amarok
Description: amaroK - the audio player for KDE.
Releases        alpha   amd64   arm     hppa    ia64    mips    ppc     ppc64   
ppc macos       s390    sh

-       -       -       -       M~
1.3_beta1       -       M~      -       -       -       -       M~      -       
-       -       -       -       M~

The betas are hard masked and package masked, so you will have to (from
a root terminal):

echo 'media-sound/amarok' >>/etc/portage/package.unmask

and

echo 'media-sound/amarok ~x86' >>/etc/portage/package.keywords

then you should be able to get the version that depends on KDE 3.4.

BTW, I'm using it (the beta build), and it seems fine (this is my first
time using Amarok, so I have no previous experience). I don't even use
KDE, but it's now my "default" player.

HTH,
Holly
