A user asked for their Google Calendar to be synchronised with 
Korganizer/Kontact and ISTR I enabled USE="google" in kde-base/kdepim-runtime, 
which I think pulled in kde-misc/akonadi-google.

A few months ago Google were using DAV for this purpose, but they decided to 
change their API.  As a result older =< 4.4.11.1-r2 KDEPIM versions broke and 
one had to move to the current versions of KDEPIM in order to use Google 
Calendar integration.
