Did you run "python-updater" after upgrading to python-2.6?
(In reply to comment #2) > Did you run "python-updater" after upgrading to python-2.6? > Oh, Sorry ... So embarrassed
So did running "python-updater" fix the problem?
Please reopen this bug report if the problem persists.
To confirm a solution to someone else's problem: I had the same error, and running python-updater fixed things here.
An quicker solution is to emerge dev-python/setuptools. After that docutils emerge without problems. Of course, somewhere afterwards one still needs to run python-updater, but this solution helps if docutils was package 211 of 415 and the emerge command of python-updater leads to conflicts.

Re-emerging the setuptools, then running the updater scrupt fixed this and a few other python issues.

You may need to install a package called "python-devel" (or similar) on your system using your package manager. I have no idea why python-update and eselect failed to work but after emerge -av1 setuptools and python-update my emerge -avuDN world could finish.
