Standard python code looks for modules in PYTHONPATH that is not updated by the root ebuild, so a user had to update it by hand himself if he wanted to use python+root. /usr/lib/root contains the following python files on my machine: /usr/lib/root/PyCintex.py /usr/lib/root/ROOTwriter.py /usr/lib/root/ROOT.py /usr/lib/root/writer.py They seem to have no collisions with other modules on my machine. The module is in /usr/lib/root/ROOT. I am attaching a patch that adds the module path to PYTHONPATH. Another possibility would be to install the module files in the standard path under /usr/lib/python*.*, so I can be automatically updated if a new major python version gets installed, but I have no idea about the hardcoded paths in the libraries.
