I can't get any of modules provided by gnome-python-base and gnome-python-desktop-base to be installed. For some reason they aren't even built: emerging dev-python/gnome-python-base-2.22.3: ... config.status: executing depfiles commands The following modules will be built: The following modules will NOT be built: gnome gnome.ui gnomecanvas gnomevfs gnomevfs.bonobo gnome-vfs python module support gconf bonobo bonobo.activation bonobo.ui ***************************************************************************** *** WARNING: You are using a deprecated build system (autotools). *** You should be using WAF instead; see the file INSTALL.WAF. *** The autotools build system will be removed in a future version. ***************************************************************************** The same thing happens with gnome-python-desktop-base and so on.

that's because *-base isn't meant to be installed by hand, all gnome python bindings will pull the appropriate *-base.

either use the meta (gnome-python, gnome-desktop-python or gnome-python-extras) which will pull all bindings, or install bindings one by one (eg. gtkmozembed-python, gnome-vfs-python, ...
Well, maybe I wasn't too precise about which package I was trying to build, but I certainly didn't say I emerged gnome-python-base by hand. I did exactly what You said: emerge gnome-python The gnome-python-base was pulled in as a dependency, but strangely it didn't install anything - so I was unsure which package is the source of the problem. Since gnome-python is just a meta, I decided to blame everything on gnome-python-base;) I'll reopen this bug for now since the thing You said wasn't the source of the problem.
maybe you had the deps installed already, please provide emerge -pv whatever you want to merge and eix -I -C dev-python -c
