Further to my previous message:

I read:

(Jul 3, 2014)

Apparently the problem is fixed, but not for me.

Following:
https://community.kde.org/Calligra/Building_Calligra_on_Windows
git clone git://anongit.kde.org/emerge.git
cd emerge
git checkout kde-4.8

I cloned "emerge" on 18/7/2014.

BTW, is anyone interested in the fact that "emerge qt" and "emerge 
kdelibs" fail miserably

1) since a few downloads are no longer available
2) because CMake 2.8.3 is used instead of 2.8.12 when attempting to 
build attica
3) because after building Qt stuff for more than two hours (on my Intel 
i5 laptop), the install fails when trying to clean up files used during 
the build process on not being able to remove a non-empty directory. In 
the end I removed "os.rmdir(self.imageDir())" from
\kderoot\emerge\bin\Package\PackageBase.py
to make it work (bad hack!)
4) needed to remove "# -*- coding: iso-8859-15 -*-" from
\kderoot\emerge\portage\win32libs-sources\aspell-src\aspell-src-0.60.6-20110105.py

Kind regards, Jörg.
