Description Skruppy 2016-02-26 23:53:09 UTC 
With Python 3.4 an ROOT set in /etc/portage/make.conf, equery's belongs queries cause an exception.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set ROOT to something else than "/" in /etc/portage/make.conf
2. Use Python 3.4 (I guess it will happen with all Python 3.*)
3. Execute "equery b portage" (or any "equery b ....")
Actual Results:  
```
 * Searching for portage ... 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python-exec/python3.4/equery", line 38, in <module>
    equery.main(sys.argv)
  File "/usr/lib64/python3.4/site-packages/gentoolkit/equery/__init__.py", line 357, in main
    loaded_module.main(module_args)
  File "/usr/lib64/python3.4/site-packages/gentoolkit/equery/belongs.py", line 157, in main
    if not find_owner(queries):
  File "/usr/lib64/python3.4/site-packages/gentoolkit/helpers.py", line 264, in __call__
    return self.find_owners(query_re, use_match=use_match, pkgset=pkgset)
  File "/usr/lib64/python3.4/site-packages/gentoolkit/helpers.py", line 287, in find_owners
    files = pkg.parsed_contents()
  File "/usr/lib64/python3.4/site-packages/gentoolkit/package.py", line 366, in parsed_contents
    for key, val in self.dblink.getcontents().iteritems():
AttributeError: 'dict' object has no attribute 'iteritems'
```

Expected Results:  
```
 * Searching for portage ... 
sys-apps/portage-2.2.26 (/etc/portage)
sys-apps/portage-2.2.26 (/usr/lib/portage)
sys-apps/portage-2.2.26 (/var/log/portage)
...
```

WORKAROUND:
Use `/usr/lib/python-exec/python2.7/equery b portage` or similar (as long as it is a Python 2 Version)

CAUSE: 
in root/pym/gentoolkit/package.py, "if myroot != '/':" (https://gitweb.gentoo.org/proj/gentoolkit.git/tree/pym/gentoolkit/package.py?id=95648e0369e74d65582ee3ef44b0a0a338f82cf0#n364) causes the bug to only appear in environments, where ROOT is set. The bug itself is caused by "self.dblink.getcontents().iteritems()", which is not Python3 Syntax.

Sorry for the long delay, but this is fixed in master now.

Thank you for the detailed troubleshooting.
