swig generates some crappy code in /usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/lldb/__init__.py: from sys import version_info as _swig_python_version_info if _swig_python_version_info >= (2, 7, 0): def swig_import_helper(): import importlib pkg = __name__.rpartition('.')[0] mname = '.'.join((pkg, '_lldb')).lstrip('.') try: return importlib.import_module(mname) #... Now, since __name__ is just 'lldb', pkg is null and it tries to import top-level '_lldb' (instead of 'lldb._lldb'). I guess the hackery they're doing is supposed to be handle importing from named .py files but doesn't cover the special case for __init__.py.
I will need a while to test the older version but it seems that it is the linked regression in 3.0.9. AFAICS upstream is not keen on fixing it before 3.1, so I'll probably end up forcing the older version in lldb ebuild.
Yep, confirmed 3.0.8 works fine.
I suggest to change the dependency string to python? ( || ( <dev-lang/swig-3.0.9 >dev-lang/swig-3.0.10 ) ) for lldb 5.0.0 and above, swig is compatible again since 3.0.11, in accordance with https://reviews.llvm.org/D33409. lldb-4.0.1 would need this patch to be backported though.
