What is your qscintilla-python version?
Remerge qscintilla and qscintilla-python
Thanks, that fixed the problem. Helmut.
What about an ewarn somewhere? IIRC, the API was broken in 4.8.1, thus adding a (conditional?) ewarn in sip-4.8.1 seems appropriate (remember that revdep-rebuild doesn't catch this)...

Then, it seems the current ebuild PyQt is not user-friendly to install. (revdep hasn't resolved the problem). Then, the workaround seems to be the following : "The installed modules (needed by PyQt) have to be reinstalled before the install of PyQt."
(In reply to comment #5) You should have run python-updater.
