Hi Astate, i hope not to bored You !
but install 
# emerge eix then
# eix-update or 
# eix-sync (that is equal to emerge --sync && eix-update) So You can interrogate the eix db (that is faster than emerge -S (--search)
 
I think is a very nice utility.
 
If You want to use kde versions > kde 4.X
I thik You must use "layman"
# emerge layman # layman -L # layman -a kde # echo "source /var/lib/layman/make.conf">> /etc/portage/make.conf then when you'll make 
# eix-update, it will be equal to  # emerge --sync && layman -S so you can re-interogate eix with
  # eix kde-meta # eix-kde-plasma  and so on .....
 
Thiis are a normal prcedure; but it is possible that you encountered troubles. Now I'm making an experiment with these commands to give you a feedback.

mmmmh at this moment i have not found an overlay with KDE 5.X .
May be that i wrote, for you are jsut comprised.
Unfortunately I have not found overlays that have kde5.X Perhaps what I wrote you know him already.   Sorry for not being able to give a solution. :(

The main issue is not the installation, IMHO, but the fact that it is not a distribution, but a meta-distribution. The choices on system tools have not been made for you. Which tools and how they are configured is up to you. This is incredibly powerful, but with any great power comes great responsibility.
 
Its up to you to make informed choices and if you aren't a Linux veteran, you simply can't do that. Yes, the defaults are sensible, but many of the things we take for granted are things new users would screw up.
 
I actually suggested a graphical installer that would automate and autodetect standard configurations and install binary packages so you can get up and running as quickly as possible with binaries for the larger apps so you aren't spending all your time and bandwidth. My plan on this was to use a web based installer so that you can install headless and this makes the system fairly easy to modify (unlike anaconda) with shell scripts as the backend and ShellInABox for raw shell commands. There wasn't any demand so its been shelved.
 
Taglines suck. https://eddon.systems

Honestly, if you need a graphical installer I suspect Gentoo/Funtoo are not for you.  Much of the system administration requires CLI work, and while it's not difficult, a reluctance to learn would make it quite difficult.  I would urge you to give it a shot, it's not that difficult, though it does require patience and a decent amount of time.
 
For what it's worth, I only really started to understand Linux after installing Gentoo on my computer 10+ years ago in high school.  I had dabbled with Debian and Red Hat but never really got what I was doing until jumping in with Gentoo.  Many friends gave me shit about it in high school, but my self taught Linux skills have gotten me every job I've ever had, and is a super critical part of my current job (though unfortunately we do not use Funtoo!).

Installing binary packages

I think you must select "desktop" since You use a DE (xfce4 in your case).
 
Do You want to try to change the profile to "Desktop" ? (this enable some use flags that may be necessary for using a Desktop environment).
 
I use xfce4 and kde.
 
It is possible to use also the "old" method:

PS: could you describe Your hardware ? (thanks) :)
 
PS2: but may be that you've "circular dependencies" ?
 
Ciao :)

It must be https://bugs.funtoo.org/browse/FL-2770 . You can try to add "media-libs/mesa -llvm" to your package.use and see what happens.

source /var/lib/layman/make.conf
 
Just that

here is my make.conf:
 
MAKEOPTS="-j9"
LINGUAS="es"
INPUT_DEVICES="evdev keyboard mouse"
VIDEO_CARDS="nvidia"
USE="X xorg dbus gtk gtk2 gtk3 tools (multilib) alsa"
ABI_X86="32 64"
echo "source /var/lib/layman/make.conf" >> /etc/portage/make.conf
 

Maybe that ??

I don't know if you already figured out, but I'll leave here my boot.conf
boot {     generate grub     default "Funtoo Linux Hardened"     timeout 3 }   "Funtoo Linux Hardened" {     params root=/dev/mapper/root     params += crypt_root=/dev/vda3     params += rootfstype=ext4     params += ro     params += quiet     kernel /vmlinuz-3.17.7-hardened-r1     initrd /initramfs-genkernel-x86_64-3.17.7-hardened-r1 } After I compile the kernel (and make "modules_install"/"install"), I run "genkernel --luks --install initramfs" to build the initramfs.
 

I'm a newbie yet, but I love Funtoo :)

I really don't understand the background or why this worked since I know nothing about perl. But I ran
# perl-cleaner --all -- --backtrack=30 which solved the problem for me. I found this solution in a Gentoo bug:
 
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=506616
 
Hope it works for you, too.
