dev-util/eric-3.7.2-r1 doesn't install properly, because of a PyQt/QScintilla problem. Tried to reinstall PyQt, PyQt4, qscintilla and qscintilla-python but without any improvement.

Because this would cause installation of a failed package I took the liberty of fixing it in-tree. The problem that lead to the install command failing still exists, though. + 23 Oct 2008; Peter Alfredsen <loki_val@gentoo.org> eric-3.7.2-r1.ebuild: + Fix problem where installation would fail but src_install would succeed + because no || die was appended to the installation command. Bug 243404, + thanks to Oliver Borm <oli.borm@web.de> +
This version depends on a really old version of PyQt3 and QScintilla. They have a shitload of bugs. I recommend using 4.2.5 instead. Python herd: you may want to drop 3.x series altogether
eric-3.x dropped as suggested
