For one: did you do a emerge rsync before the update?
For two: I think if it has been overwritten or changed it will stay on your system. At least that's what the Portage User Guide tells me. |

Yup that will solve it, but it won't get updated with emerge --update world |

You will probably find that licq has been masked, that is why you are getting these errors.
Either unmask it in /usr/portage/profiles/packages.mask (by placing a # on the line for licq)
or
Remove it from youe /var/cache/edb/world file.
