no, that is not especially important.

You have kde-16.08.1 components installed and those are long gone from
the tree. Current is 16.08.3

With a world update portage will simply update them to current, assuming
you have KDE installed because you want it that is.

Your problem is that the box seems to have not been updated in a long
while. That is always tricky.

The solution is always the copious use of patience and understanding.
Your sledgehammer approach is going to result in vast amounts of pain.
