Description Darren Smith 2009-09-17 23:30:13 UTC 
The PyQt dependency on qscintilla[python] is causing a number of new packages to be installed. Looking at the check_qscintilla function in the configure.py script used to configure PyQt, it doesn't appear that qscintilla is even required. It's an optional dependency. Could a USE flag be added for this dependency?

Reproducible: Always

PyQt is obsolete, and was removed from Portage. Use PyQt4.
