Try an emerge -pv -ut (t for tree) --deep world (or "emerge -uDpvt world" :F). That should at least tell you what's requiring the package. I just saw this exact same issue not five minutes ago in another post, but I can't for the life of me find it now. I'll let you know if it turns up.

I had the same problem this morning so i did some investigation. After some digging and looking in CVS i found out someone added some use flags to make.default "by request of the gnome team", namely 'eds' and 'gstreamer'

See http://www.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/profiles/default-linux/amd64/make.defaults?rev=1.9&view=log f.e. (Rev. 1.9)

adding -eds to your use flags should prolly fix things. No clue as to why eds should be in the default profile...

some gnome stuff is/can be, using the evolution-data-server.
thats most likely why.

Thanks the " emerge -pv -ut --deep world" shows:
