Add RESTRICT="fetch", plus add an informational function pkg_nofetch.
Search for them for example here:

http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/devrel/handbook/handbook.xml?part=2&chap=1

or on the man page (man 5 ebuild).

I believe the problem spot could be anywhere before that line. That
line might just be the last one with a quote char, so there won't be
any later quotes in the file to match? Thus, check all lines before
that one.
