[gentoo-user] I can't re-emerge from kde-live to kde-4.4.

[gentoo-user] I can't re-emerge from kde-live to kde-4.4.

I was using KDE-Live (v.4.4.95), but it crashed sometimes.
Then I do: emerge -C @kde-live.
The kde-meta-9999 had been uninstall-ed well.
Next step, I switch to stable version 4.4.3.
But when I do: emerge kde-meta:4.4.
It shows:

Total: 60 packages (3 upgrades, 5 new, 52 in new slots, 52 uninstalls), Size
of downloads: 0 kB
Conflict: 104 blocks

I don't know why there's only 60 packages.
Is there something I need to fix?
I want to re-emerge full KDE.
Would anyone can help me?
Thank you! :)

You unmerged the live set. That only unmerged things explicitly mentioned in 
it. You did not unmerge the deps it pulled in and they are still there.

Check for kde-live packages in world, then do

emerge -a --depclean

then emerge kde-meta:4.4
