Since the upstream commit [1] gps/{__init__,gps}.py files are templatized, and so aren't present in the source tree. Instead, they are generated in the build directory. The ebuild, however, still runs setup.py script in the source directory, which fails to find and install these files (they aren't there since that commit). The end result is that Python programs using these modules fail to start, including, for example, the bundled xgps utility: > $ xgps > Traceback (most recent call last): > File "/usr/bin/xgps", line 70, in <module> > if gps.__version__ != gps_version: > AttributeError: module 'gps' has no attribute '__version__' I've attached a simple patch to the ebuild that fixes the issue to me (both src_compile() and src_install() hunks seem to be required, otherwise the install script complains).
