use -opengl if you dont need GL support. This is a problem with gtkglarea, not pygtk by the looks of it. I assume you have X ? Can you give us the configure.log of the failing ebuild .

Seems the libs arent there or can't be found. What is the output of 'qpkg -l xfree | grep GL' (you need gentoolkit for this)?

might sound overly simple but i don't suppose an 'opengl-update xfree' or if you're a nvidia user, an 'opengl-update nvidia' might fix things? they tend to sort out most of the simpler (ie symlinks etc) GL problems.
please try obz's suggestion in this. And please check if the qpkg output files are really there. And provide the contents of your /etc/ld.so.conf .

Some more info: When I run glxinfo, I receive the following error: glxinfo: error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Running "locate libGL.so.1" reveals the following: /usr/lib/opengl/xfree/lib/libGL.so.1.2 /usr/lib/opengl/xfree/lib/old.libGL.so.1 /usr/lib/opengl/xfree/lib/libGL.so.1 /usr/lib/old.libGL.so.1 Should there be a "libGL.so.1" in /usr/lib ?
I may have found my problem. Note the double "//" in my link. root@Acer lib # ls -l libGL.so.1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 49 Aug 26 21:17 libGL.so.1 -> /usr/lib/opengl/xfree/lib//usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so
No joy :( Tried emerging gtkglarea again after fixing links (glxinfo works). Still receive the same errors.
to Q in #11 : yes there should be from the link in #12 you can see what is wrong, the link should be without the 'usr/X11R6/lib' part i dunno why that gets added, maybe a wrong symlink somewhere. Azarah i think you take care of the opengl-update script, i think this is more something for you.
Performed an emerge -e world. I was able to emerge the latest version of pygtk. Looks like something got mangled on my system. Thanks
closing as nonreproducable thanks for getting back to us
