Your problem might be simply not reemerging packages that depend on sip after its upgrade. But a potential auto-magical dep is a different matter.
A quick check of pykde4-4.6.0.ebuild: >... >src_configure() { > mycmakeargs=( > -DWITH_QScintilla=OFF So this feature is always disabled !?
The support was never there, so this is more a feature request than a bug report. :) Anyway, added in the KDE overlay in -r1 and later. Please test...
This whole bug is invalid. Scintilla support was never present in pykde4 and -DWITH_QScintilla=OFF was added purposedly to prevent some automagic dependencies being pulled. I'll revert all scintilla ebuild changes - please verify source tarballs in a future before solving user requests.
