Same problem here

looks like there a 3.17.3 that should fix this.  Look for it in portage in a
little bit, and try again with that version.

3.17.3 isn't in my dev-python portage folder.

Did you resync?  It's been there since the 11th of august.

How do I do that?

emerge sync?  how do you normally sync portage?

Although my "fresh" sync today was done last night by my local server, it
appears dev-python/sip-4.7 is stabled for amd64, yet dev-python/PyQt-3.17.3 is
not.  This would be the source of the problem, since with neither one in
package.keywords, you get the latest sip but only PyQt-3.17 so it breaks during
a large update or other rebuild (such as running python-updater, which is what
I just did).  You might want to fix that...

This could have been avoided by having PyQt-3.17.2 and older versions DEPEND on
the older version of sip.  Also because of the above, you have to coordinate
and stable both of them at the same time (ie, PyQt-3.17.3 and sip-4.7).

These are pretty much the only bugs open on PyQt, so it seems time to stable
PyQt-3.17.3 on amd64, since sip-4.7 is already stable on amd64 (done).  When
you stable other arch's for sip-4.7, you'll need to stable the same arch's for
PyQt-3.17.3 at the same time to avoid similar breakage.

You can fix this bug and several others by straightening out the sip DEPENDS in
the older PyQt ebuilds as noted, to separate versions prior to the above from
the most recent one.

PyQT-3.17 is up to now marked as stable on X86, too, which doesn't work with
stable sip-4.7.1 for weeks.

Please stabilize version PyQT-3.17.3 of PyQT for X86, too.

Could this bug get some attention as on x86 it is still not possible to build
pyqt-3.17 as it does not build with sip-4.7.1. The solution appears to have
been given two months ago??

As both PyQt-3.17 and Sip-4.7.1 are marked as stable on x86 (I think) this is
breakage that should not occur. (especially if it is known that this doesn't
work)

Please stabalize 3.17.3 because you cannot emerge amarok (and other tools that
use PyQt) on a "stable" system at the moment.

I've requested stablization of PyQt-3.17.3 and sip-4.7.1 in bug 200630.

Fixed now, so closing this bug too. :) (thanks Philantrop!)
