When I encountered this one (there really should be a ppp flag for
the kdenetwork ebuild), I did this:
# vi $(equery which kdenetwork)
Find the line in RDEPEND that says net-dialup/ppp and delete it.
# ebuild $(equery which kdenetwork) digest
# emerge -uDN world
It seems like a hack, and it is, but it worked for me.
