Okay, this should have fixed a lot of broken things. I guess your revdep-

PyQt is in the kde-sunset overlay which contains all stuff needed for KDE
3.5. Do you have such things installed? Or is PyQt accidentally in your
/var/lib/portage/world file? emerge -pv --depclean PyQt should show you
which stuff pulls it in.
If you think nothing needs it, remove it with emerge -Ca PyQt, and try
revdep-rebuild again. Or add the kde-sunset overlay with layman.

I do not have it set explicitely, but for me this USE flag is also
activated, probably because of the desktop profile. I do not have PyQt
installed.
