The following problem occurs emerging =sabayon-2.25.0: (...) checking whether ln -s works... yes checking what warning flags to pass to the C compiler... -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes checking what language compliance flags to pass to the C compiler... checking for headers required to compile python extensions... found checking whether the xdg.DesktopEntry module for Python is available...

please run python-updater.
python-updater says it can not determine any previous Python versions(s). My python hostory is: $ genlop -t python * dev-lang/python Wed Mar 5 04:23:44 2008 >>> dev-lang/python-2.4.4-r9 merge time: 24 seconds.

hum, could you try re-emerging pyxdg-0.15, if it doesn't fix it, please try with 0.17, maybe the dep needs to be raised.
Ok, manual re-emerge of pyxdg-0.15 solves the issue, which was clearly not a sabayon issue, apologies.
just to be sure, could you check if there is anything left in /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/ ?
What should I see or not see? There's a bunch of files and directories in there, also, most recent, an xdg/ and a sabayon/ with some stuff in it.
arg, silly me. I meant that depending on which is the best python version available on your system, other /usr/lib/python${PYVER}/site-packages directories should be empty. If not, something was missed by python-updater. Anyway thanks for your answers in comment #4, I guess we can close this bug now.
