I'll check just in case tho. The thing is, when I type in my location and click search, it returns my location but the service is wettercom not noaa. Apparently wettercom doesn't actually have info for my location. It just thinks it does. I did a google search and it is a known problem. I found others talking about it. So, it's not just me.

For the less enlightened. The file is here:
/usr/portage/kde-base/kgamma/kgamma-4.6.3.ebuild
This part should look like this:

Don't forget to redo the manifest:

eventually?

I was able to get it to emerge by adding the following to my
/etc/portage/package.use:
kde-base/kgamma -handbook
The rest of the KDE-4.6.3 completed without further errors.

Yep, it's a use flag issue...like you said, don't touch the
ebuild...turn off the use flag instead, until it gets fixed.
handbook is unset for me - so it was off. Logically there is no need
to turn something off again.
Have reported as a bug. Not sure if I should have done?
USE=-handbook emerge kdegamma fixes the issue though.
All other packages have emerged fine.

Apparently, though unproven, at 00:14 on Monday 09 May 2011, john did opine thusly: Great widgets. Not sure what a Molar Mass Calculator does? Perhaps weighs your teeth?? :-) Molar as in the adjective describing mole as in quantity of matter as in some gigantic number of identical atoms (or maybe it's molecules). It's a very useful measure of some quantity of stuff. IIRC the gigantic number is Avogadro's number, on the order of 10^124. So one mole of hydrogen would be the amount of hydrogen containing that number of hydrogen atoms (or maybe it's molecules. Whatever.) -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com

you can report it - but since there is a 100% failure rate I am pretty sure
the devs already know about it.
