7 It means that there is no md5 for the files that make up the qt3 source.

9 After it downloads:
10
11 ebuild /usr/portage/x11-libs/qt/qt-3.0.1-r1.ebuild digest

13 BTW: you can always edit /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask and comment out
14 the qt3 line so it wont stop you from merging it. Just dont be suprised
15 if your drive gets corrupted, monitor explodes, or your significant other
16 dumps you because the software is what the Gentoo developers deem "unstable" or
17 "problematic". Granted, there has been occasion when something was
18 unmasked and worked fine after everyone forgot why it was masked in the
19 first place, but I suspect qt3 falls under a different category.
