I'm not sure if this is an site specific problem, or something that is more widespread - anyone have any knowledge on why this is occuring? (Sorry in advance if this is a duplicate - couldn't find anything else that seemed to match, and it seemed like a bug.)
one of the error telling you to compile gnome-python with gtkhtml support before emerge straw. # USE="gtkhtml" emerge gnome-python straw
Was already using gtkhtml, but it seems that the newest build of gnome-python fixes most of these problems. Since pyorbit comes from the same place ( http://www.daa.com.au/~james/software/pygtk/ ) I'm assuming that it's a problem with where the PyGTK bindings are placing themselves. Error messages are now: running install running build running build_py running build_scripts running build_mo running install_modules_check Error: pyorbit Python module is required to install Straw !!!

I just looked at the gnome-pyhton ebuild, it depends on pyorbit, so you should have pyorbit on your system to satify straw when you emerged gnome-python. I am confused now.
I have PyOrbit installed. I also had gnome-python installed. The recent (today or yesterday?) gnome-python versino bump from 2.0.0 to 2.0.0-r1 fixed all of the gnome-python issues I was having. Since both gnome-python and pyorbit are exhibiting the same behavior, and they come from the same place, I expect that a similar version bump from pyorbit will correct the problem that pyorbit is now exhibiting. Did that make more sense?
which version of pyorbit is on your system? mine is pyorbit-2.0.0 and I don't have problem emerge straw.
Reemerged pyorbit. Fixed problems. Closing bug as invalid - must have been a temporary problem for some reaosn on my machine. Thanks for your help.
