I just updated dev-python/docutils-0.4-r1 to 0.4-r3, and afterwards eix could successfully be emerged. IMHO dependency of eix-0.13.3 to (at least) dev-python/docutils-0.4-r3 should be considered in ebuild.
I can confirm this bug. I had dev-python/docutils-0.4-r3 but after reemerging it, eix could actually be emerged. So adding a dependency as suggested in comment #1 would not have helped me.
Just for reference, it's very likely that both of you forgot to run python-updater after upgrading from python-2.4 to 2.5 (so python-2.5 was used, but the docutils modules (and all others as well) were in the 2.4 site-packages directory).
(In reply to comment #3) I tend to exclude that was the issue. I had docutils-0.5 installed and python2.6 only. emerging eix gave me the same error, and the only way to successfully emerge it has been to re-emerge docutils. To give you guys some more information, I had no other slots of python installed, no residuals from python recovery (you know, if you accidentally unmerge it and install another version manually, it puts files in /usr/local/* instead of /usr etc.), and obviously running python-updater did notghing beacuse nothing had to be done.
(In reply to comment #4) excuse me, I forgot to specify the eix version: this happened to me with eix-0.16.0
