The ebuilds look ok. Apparently the makefiles are slightly broken and don't 
mkdir ${DESTDIR}/shares/services (in the above error) before installing into 
that dir. If that's the problem, do something like:

src_install() {

	mkdir -p ${D}/share/services
	kde_src_install

}

Note that I haven't tested it, just looked at the error.
