11 You have the split ebuilds installed yet emerge world is trying to
12 install the monolithic ebuilds, you can't have both.

18 Do you have kde-base/kde installed? If so, unmerge it, it won't break
19 anything because it doesn't contain anything (it is a meta-package), but
20 it will stop emerge world trying to pull in all the monolithic ebuilds.

22 Otherwise, reun emerge -utv world to see what is trying to install the
23 monolithic packages.
