12 Hm. Looking at the ebuilds for those packages, I don't see the version numbers
13 you mention:
14 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9351 Dec 14 13:59 kdelibs-4.4.5-r1.ebuild
15 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9306 Sep 13 15:05 kdelibs-4.4.5.ebuild
16 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9356 Nov 3 09:30 kdelibs-4.5.3.ebuild
17 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9353 Dec 2 13:16 kdelibs-4.5.4.ebuild

19 Are you using a portage overlay for kde?

21 Anyway, the older version of kontact may compile and run normally if you
22 emerge it with the newer version of kdelibs installed. I would try it as
23 an experiment before trying to install two different library versions.
