The irc package uses setuptools, but does not declare that dependency in DEPEND. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge -av =dev-python/irc-8.5.4 Actual Results: … >>> Compiling source in /var/tmp/portage/dev-python/irc-8.5.4/work/irc-8.5.4 ... * python3_3: running distutils-r1_run_phase distutils-r1_python_compile /usr/bin/python3.3 setup.py build Traceback (most recent call last): File "setup.py", line 3, in <module> import setuptools ImportError: No module named 'setuptools' … Expected Results: Successful installation. Should be an easy fix, just add dev-python/setuptools to DEPEND for all the dev-python/irc ebuilds. It looks like the setuptools dependency landed in irc v3.1 [1]: 3.1 * Distribute using setuptools rather than paver [1]: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/irc
