python-updater is part of app-admin/python-updater and unless you used the _unsafe_ --nodeps option, when building Python, you should have it installed. Please run python-updater and confirm if the problem persists or not.

The strange thing however... although I could not find python-updater (the executable) anywhere on my computer, and certainly not in /usr/sbin/, portage indeed said it was installed. Anyway, a simple remerge and run of python-updater fixed the issue.
