No version of PyGTK was found on your system. However, rebuilding PyGTK doesn't help.
As hinted in red letters, "Gentoo Bugzilla" is not the correct product to file bugs regarding ebuilds. Please use "New -> Gentoo Linux -> Component: Ebuilds" or New -> Gentoo Security for security issues in future.
This isn't an issue of having missed to run python-updater after updating to Python 2.5 by chance?
Unfortunately it is a recent install of Gentoo and it has only used python 2.5. I tried to execute python-updater, which said something like no previous version detected (I have to run it again to quote the exact message) (sorry for the wrong product selection, not quite awake this morning)

(back from vacations) thank you very much, indeed "python-updater -o 2.4" worked
