$ grep -r thumbnailers /var/portage/kde-base/* /var/portage/kde-base/kdegraphics-meta/kdegraphics-meta-4.3.0.ebuild: >=kde- base/thumbnailers-${PV}:${SLOT}[kdeprefix=] /var/portage/kde-base/kdegraphics-meta/kdegraphics-meta-4.3.1.ebuild: >=kde- base/thumbnailers-${PV}:${SLOT}[kdeprefix=] So I'll bet that you have kdegraphics-meta-4.3.0 in world which won't pull in thumbnailers. To verify: grep kde /var/lib/portage/world And, you did check the contents of package.keywords and package.mask, right? -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com
