Indeed. There's a lot of those USE="minimal" blockers, and they are
likely to continue till all official KDE apps are ported to Plasma5.
Here's my list:
/etc/portage/package.use/package.use:# 20150831: These apps with
USE="-minimal" block the upgrade to their kde-frameworks equivalent
/etc/portage/package.use/package.use:kde-apps/kde-wallpapers minimal
/etc/portage/package.use/package.use:kde-apps/kde4-l10n minimal
/etc/portage/package.use/package.use:kde-apps/kdeartwork-meta minimal
/etc/portage/package.use/package.use:=kde-apps/kdebase-kioslaves-4* minimal
/etc/portage/package.use/package.use:kde-apps/kdebase-runtime-meta minimal
/etc/portage/package.use/package.use:=kde-apps/konsole-4* minimal
/etc/portage/package.use/package.use:=kde-apps/kwalletmanager-4* minimal
/etc/portage/package.use/package.use:kde-apps/libkipi:4 minimal
/etc/portage/package.use/package.use:=kde-base/baloo-4* minimal
/etc/portage/package.use/package.use:=kde-base/kactivities-4* minimal
