First, many thanks for the hint.
Second, kde-sunset poses some difficulties like
!!! Couldn't download 'koffice-1.6.3_p20090204.tar.bz2'. Aborting.
or
kde-misc/kdnssd-avahi
* ERROR: kde-misc/kdnssd-avahi-0.1.2-r1 failed:
* net-dns/avahi-0.6.25 does not actually support the qt3 USE flag!
and probably much more to come!
Furthermore, I suspect emerge @preserved-rebuild
re-emerges many to many packages since most packages
depend only indirectly on libjpeg.so....
