3.7.4 is now in portage.  Please try it out (I removed the sandbox patch) and
let me know if 
you have problems.

>>> Install pykde-3.7.4 into /var/tmp/portage/pykde-3.7.4/image/ category dev-python
( [ -d dcop ] && cd dcop ; "/usr/bin/make" -f Makefile install; ) || true
make[1]: Entering directory
`/var/tmp/portage/pykde-3.7.4/work/PyKDE-3.7-4/dcop'
cp dcop.py /var/tmp/portage/pykde-3.7.4/image//usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages
cp: cannot create regular file
`/var/tmp/portage/pykde-3.7.4/image//usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages': No such
file or directory

(and so on)

Adding

mkdir -p ${D}/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages

before the make install line fixes this.

Additionally the ebuild won't work with PyQt 3.8; build.py has to be changed to
achieve this.

Release = "3.7"

to:

Release = "3.8"

Python 2.3 wouldn't work out of the box, too.

yes, there are alot of issues with python 2.3 right now, we're working on it
(or at least i am atm)

with the pyqt bug, if the problem still exists, please file another bug because
it seems to be a seperate issue to pykde

Alastair Tse:  What's up with PyQt 3.8? The usage to change pykde's build.py,
if PyQt 3.8 is installed, has nothing to do with any other PyQt 3.8 problems.

Your ebuild fix in #27619 still won't work with Python 2.3. I'll attach an
ebuild that includes all necessary fixes. It will work with PyQt 3.6-8. I hope
so at least. ;)
