All ebuilds have: RDEPEND="${COMMON_DEPEND} dev-python/pyxdg" There are 2 wrong things: 1. app-accessibility/speech-dispatcher with USE="-python" does not install any file using dev-python/pyxdg (which only provides xdg Python module and no scripts). 2. app-accessibility/speech-dispatcher with USE="python" installs /usr/lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages/speechd_config/config.py which uses dev-python/pyxdg ('from xdg import BaseDirectory'). This means that dev-python/pyxdg is required for the matching Python versions.
