After a little research I have decided to install krusader as my file manager. Installing it should be fairly simple.
emerge --ask krusader
After seeing the below output…
Spoilerstorm ~ # emerge --ask krusader
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating dependencies... done!

…I run the below to make use of the English/British USE flag. I install both en_GB and uk USE flags.
echo "kde-misc/krusader en_GB uk" >> /etc/portage/package.use
For some reason the change in USE flags were not picked up. However, I proceeded and installed it anyway. The below was the output.
