This seems to be the basic cause.  However, I have no idea what that  
emerge should do if the group it wants to install does already exist.   
I can re-emerge this package with no problems.  Is this a new install  
or reinstall?  All the logic is in the eclass which does have the  
comment "Creates the group if it does not exist."

What happens if you just run "emerge -1 acct-group/lp"?  Have you done  
a successful "emerge -auDvN @system" ?  There may well be something  
else required still missing, but not an explicit dependency because it  
is part of @system.
