[gentoo-user] Portage still seeing non-existant version 5's of packages

[Calvin Spealman]

For a few packages, currently k3b and koffice, portage is seeing the newest version as being 5. These versions don't exist, and portage chokes very badly on installing or updating the packages. Does anyone know where it might be getting these faulty version numbers, or where I need to look to fix it. I've cleared some caches as suggested previously, synced, installed a binary of portage executables, and ran an emerge --regen, but with no noticable results. If anyone has any suggestions on fixing this error, please let me know, and thanks for your help, in advance.
