Most likely, you have recently updated from python-2.3 to python-2.4, but did
not run 'python-updater'. You must run this to make sure all python packages put
their modules into the proper location to run with python-2.4.

If you had posted 'emerge info', as you are prompted to when filing out a bug, I
would be able to know if this is the case for sure.
