# lirc-setup
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/lirc-setup", line 10, in <module>
    import mvc_control
  File "/usr/lib64/python3.3/site-packages/lirc/mvc_control.py", line 2, in <module>
    import gi
ImportError: No module named 'gi'


From mvc_control.py:

'' Simple lirc setup tool - control part. '''
import gi
gi.require_version('Gtk', '3.0')

gi appears to be part of pygobject:

/usr/lib64/python3.4/site-packages/gi

[IP-] [  ] dev-python/pygobject-2.28.6-r55:2
[IP-] [  ] dev-python/pygobject-3.16.2:3

[IP-] [  ] x11-libs/gtk+-3.16.7:3
Comment 1 John Klug 2016-08-16 03:14:50 UTC 
Another issue occurs at line 12 of /usr/lib64/python3.3/site-packages/lirc/mvc_view.py:

12:gi.require_version('Vte', '2.91')


  File "/usr/lib64/python3.3/site-packages/lirc/mvc_view.py", line 12, in <module>
    gi.require_version('Vte', '2.91')
  File "/usr/lib64/python3.3/site-packages/gi/__init__.py", line 106, in require_version
    (namespace, version))
ValueError: Namespace Vte not available for version 2.91


Not sure what package this is referring.  x11-libs/vte is from 0.28 to 0.42.  Python-vte in Debian is of a similar level.
Comment 2 Craig Andrews gentoo-dev 2016-12-29 16:37:35 UTC 
To make lirc-setup work, these dependencies need to be added:
x11-libs/vte[introspection]
dev-python/pygobject

I'm handling this at https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/3150#pullrequestreview-14676737
Comment 3 Craig Andrews gentoo-dev 2016-12-30 22:01:51 UTC 
Fixed in 0.9.4c

app-misc/lirc-0.9.4c: version bump.

* Use xdg-utils.eclass to cleanup XDG_* env causing sandbox violation.
