Yes, I got it too, even going straight to rsync.gentoo.org instead of my usual
UK mirror. I tried adding to package.mask:
>=kde-base/kdebase-startkde-4.11.22-r1
>=kde-base/kactivities-4.13.3-r2
but that only caused another failure because those package versions weren't
available.
I was hoping this was a part-update problem, in which the devs hadn't released
all the packages involved in whatever change they're making. I'm still
inclined to think that, because:
$ diff $(equery w =kde-base/kdebase-startkde-4.11.22-r1) $(equery w
=kde-base/kdebase-startkde-4.11.22)
12c12
< KEYWORDS="~amd64 ~arm ~x86 ~amd64-linux ~x86-linux"
---
> KEYWORDS="amd64 ~arm x86 ~amd64-linux ~x86-linux"
51d50
< "${FILESDIR}/${PN}-kwalletd-pam.patch"
$
...and that patch file has no mention of kde-apps/kdebase-runtime-meta:5.
This is an ~amd64 box, by the way, so I'm not affected by the change of
keyword in -r1.
