Bugzilla Bug 149648

Hi,
 i was trying to emerge -e system on my x86_64 box. However when it
comes to python-related packages it shows the error reported in the
attachement.

I've already tried to reinstall dev-lang/python and dev-python/python-fchksum
but nothing has changed. 

I'm not able to install any other program with this blocker.

Regards,
Marco

Bug solved. This was caused by an absent symbolic link between
/usr/lib64/python2.4 and /usr/lib/python2.4 (the latter has to point to the
first one).
