configuration of avogadro package searches for numpy headers. Avogadro ebuild is able to complete even without numpy, but I suggest to add a dependency and/or a keyword for numpy support. Reproducible: Always
=sci-chemistry/avogadro-0.9.2 and =sci-chemistry/avogadro-0.9.3 have missing dependencies if the python useflag is enabled. Unfortunately the build system silently disables python support if the dependencies are not found.

Missed that with the useflag for boost. It looks like the python support is alawys enabled for the old versions.

For boost >=dev-libs/boost-1.35 || ( >=dev-libs/boost-1.35.0-r5[python] <dev-libs/boost-1.35.0-r5 ) does the job.
