It's probably unmasked as well. I think unmask overrides mask. As an alternative, you can try to eliminate pykde4 entirely by setting these USE flags in your package.use: kde-base/marble -python kde-base/plasma-workspace -python kde-base/superkaramba -python kde-base/kdeadmin-meta -cups kde-base/kdeutils-meta -cups With those, I have no pykde4 at all. I'm not sure what functionality may be lost due to it, but I've noticed nothing that I use missing.
