Description gentoo@danielquinn.org 2012-03-13 10:07:14 UTC 
So I build this brand new system and everything compiles just fine, including guake.  However when I try to run it, this happens:

    $ guake
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "/usr/lib64/guake/guake.py", line 21, in <module>
        import pygtk
    ImportError: No module named pygtk

    $ emerge -p guake

    These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

    Calculating dependencies... done!
    [ebuild   R    ] x11-terms/guake-0.4.2  USE="nls" 0 kB

So I'm thinking, guake needs to require pygtk no?
Comment 1 Richard Grenville 2012-03-13 13:23:12 UTC 
dev-python/pygtk is listed in RDEPEND variable of x11-terms/guake-0.4.2's ebuild, so PyGTK should already be installed. Maybe you just changed the active Python version without running python-updater, or chose Python 3 as the default Python version?
Comment 2 Mike Gilbert gentoo-dev 2012-03-14 03:20:57 UTC 
The /usr/bin/guake script needs to call /usr/bin/python2 instead of /usr/bin/python.

Just ran into the same problem!
What's hindering stabilization of the package?
