I found it: pygobjects is available in a slotted version, as pygobject:2 and pygobject:3. I found that out by seeing if downgrading hplip would help (it didn't). After that, the latest version pulled in this: dev-python/pygobject-2.28.6-r55:2::gentoo even the dev-python/pygobject-3.18.2:3::gentoo version was already installed. Now it works. Please see this forum thread for reference: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1046706-start-0-postdays-0-postorder-asc-highlight-.html?sid=921edd68f02e9bb19cba1b6f41716ea1
@python: Can you please help me out here. Recently I have added python 3 support to hplip. However I found no way to properly depend on the slotted dev-python/pygobject. hplip uses the python-single-r1.eclass and requires dev-python/pygobject which is slotted. Slot 2 provides python 2 support (PyGTK) and slot 3 has python 3 support (PyGObject). So what is the proper way to depend on this package depending on the value of PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET? It seems that dev-python/pygobject[${PYTHON_USEDEP}] is not sufficient. Currently the dependencies below is what I came up with but I am sure there is a more elegant way. python_single_target_python2_7? ( dev-python/pygobject:2[${PYTHON_USEDEP}] ) python_single_target_python3_3? ( dev-python/pygobject:3[${PYTHON_USEDEP}] ) python_single_target_python3_4? ( dev-python/pygobject:3[${PYTHON_USEDEP}] )
*** Bug 591800 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
I wrote another bugreport bevor I know, that this was a problem of hplip. I fixed this problem when I build hplip with qt4 -qt5.
Thanks for your report, fixed by commit 7f570c20cc58cc92c9ebdfdf8f6f5b618e8f75d4
