It hasn't actually been released upstream, yet.  Normally, the kde team 
put a mask in the overlay before they add the new ebuilds in preparation, 
then simply unmask them on the day of release (or maybe a day later if 
they forget or if there are last-minute changes that broke something and 
they're left scrambling), but this time, whether due to policy change or 
simply overlooking it (it /was/ a long holiday weekend here in the US) I 
don't know, they didn't.

There's a bug open.  I'm CCed and you can too (I searched on ALL kde 4.5.4 
and it was the only one), but if I don't miss my guess, release might be 
today anyway, in which case it'll be moot.  I'm sort of expecting it 
today, Monday, but I'd almost certainly expect it by Wednesday.
