Your ebuild appears to work fine for me, thanks! I'm running amd64 stable.

I just think you should add x11-libs/pango and x11-libs/cairo to the dependency list. Or, rather... Reduce the list to just:

DEPEND="x11-libs/libXtst
        dev-lang/python
        >=x11-libs/gtk+-2"

Because gtk+ already depends on libX11, pango and cairo.

Also, maybe rename the package from dev-python/python-virtkey to just dev-python/virtkey.

(this is an automated message based on filtering criteria that matched this bug)
'EBUILD' is in the KEYWORDS which should mean that there is a ebuild attached 
to this bug.
This bug is assigned to maintainer-wanted which means that it is not in the 
main tree.
Heuristics show that no Gentoo developer has commented on your ebuild.

Hello, The Gentoo Team would like to firstly thank you for your ebuild 
submission. We also apologize for not being able to accommodate you in a timely
manner. There are simply too many new packages.

Allow me to use this opportunity to introduce you to Gentoo Sunrise. The 
sunrise overlay[1] is a overlay for Gentoo which we allow trusted users to 
commit to and all users can have ebuilds reviewed by Gentoo devs for entry 
into the overlay. So, the sunrise team is suggesting that you look into this 
and submit your ebuild to the overlay where even *you* can commit to. =)

Because this is a mass message, we are also asking you to be patient with us. 
We anticipate a large number of requests in a short time. 

Thanks,
On behalf of the Gentoo Sunrise Team,
Jeremy.

You are right, I've reduced the list. We don't need to add python there, because distutils.eclass does this already.

I see we have many packages using python-starting names, and I don't think there is a reason we want to use other name than upstream does.
