Have you recently update python and haven't run python-updater?

On your suggestion I checked this and see that I updated python from 2.4.4-r6 to 2.5.1-r3 in October of last year. The latest was this Jan 7th when I upgraded to 2.5.1-r5.

I've never run python-updater manually so I gave it a try. I stopped it because it was going to update linux-headers, binutils, gcc and glibc which I don't want to do right now. If that's what it takes then I will go ahead and do this but I won't be able to get to do these emerges until next week.

Output of python-updater

I've included the output of running python-updater with the pretend option in case it's useful.

So your java-config is broken and needs to be re-emerged.
emerge -a1 java-config:0

Just got back in town and tried the suggestion of re-emerging java-config and then aoi and aoi now emerges successfully. Thanks for your help, I now know a little more about emerging which may help the next time something like this happens.
