can't install kde stuff, perl and makemaker problems

[MaRTiaN]

I've been having problems trying to install kde packages, as soon as I try I get an error stating that the required perl (5.6.1-r10 I think) can't be found for extutils-makemaker, I looked in the mask file and its commented out with a message saying its extremely borked.

This is a completely fresh install, I've even unmerged perl and remerged it

There seems to be a lot of problems with makemaker and perl with gentoo atm, but none of the posts 've looked at seem to help.

I've junked the partition and set it up as ntfs for a win2k install , I've got a new HD coming soon, will get gentoo on that, hoping the problem was specific to my install.
