Here is a list of what I have installed and as far as I know, everything 
works.  This includes my printer, camera and USB drives when inserted.

root@fireball / # equery l dbus kdelibs polkit consolekit
  * Searching for dbus ...
[IP-] [  ] sys-apps/dbus-1.4.12:0

  * Searching for kdelibs ...
[IP-] [  ] kde-base/kdelibs-4.7.1-r2:4

  * Searching for polkit ...
[IP-] [  ] sys-auth/polkit-0.101-r1:0

  * Searching for consolekit ...
[IP-] [  ] sys-auth/consolekit-0.4.5-r1:0
root@fireball / #

Maybe compare those.  If you need me to, I can post the emerge info with 
USE flags too.
