The PyQt4-4.5.1 ebuild requires USE=assistant in order to enable both the QtHelp and QtAssistant modules. I think QtHelp can be used independently of QtAssistant, and that QtHelp should be enabled by the ebuild regardless of the assistant USE flag. Relatedly, the eric4-4.4 snapshot requires the QtHelp module to be present, so either QtHelp should be enabled by default or future ebuilds for eric4 should require PyQt4 to be merged with USE=assistant. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
The latest eric4 snapshot in the qting-edge overlay requires PyQt4 to be built with USE=assistant.

QtHelp is installed by qt-assistant, not by qt-core.
