Hi,
Try the following:
#emerge =kde-base/kdelibs-3.5.6-r5 -aC
will ask for confirmation to unmerge.
The old kde-env ebuild must be in VDB (/var/db/pkg/...)

Please show the output of: 

# emerge -Cva kde-env

Also is the above really the full package list from emerge? If not please
provide that.

> Try the following:

NO! If that's the version of kdelibs that is installed it'll break his KDE
installation until kdelibs gets reinstalled. If not it'll fail. In either case
it won't solve the problem.

That only removed the database entry for kde-env, not kde-env itself. The
correct solution was to emerge --unmerge kde-env. It doesn't matter that
the ebuild is no longer in the portage tree, because portage stores a
copy of the ebuild used to install a package in /var/db/pkg and uses that
to unmerge.

Did you delete the folder from /var/db or move it? If the latter, move it
back and "emerge --unmerge kde-env". If the former, you've broken the
package database and it will be hard to remove the files as portage now
thinks they are not installed.

I prefer "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hda".
