Portage is a wonderful thing.
That said, it is sometimes a bit unnerving to look at the details. For

watching my update go by just now and saw this during the update to kpdf:

This Makefile is only for the CVS repository
This will be deleted before making the distribution
This message does not come from portage or the ebuild. It comes from
the kde-base build system....everybody who extracts the kdebase
sources and runs "make -f Makefile.cvs" will see this.
It seems clear that as an ordinary gentoo user, I should not be seeing such
messages. I hope it just means that there's a bug in the message, not in the
ebuild. I don't have the portage expertise to track this down, so I'll
just (ahem) assume it's okay.
Not sure what you mean....the message looks perfectly harmless to me.
It is basicallly a message to the KDE developers working on the 3.5.2
release (and early adopters using the CVS version) that that specific
makefile would go away at release time. Now, I do not know why it
*didn't* go away...after all 3.5.2 is released but the file is still
there. But the message itself seems innocuous.
